I am a former M1 Tank Gunner in 3rd platoon, Alpha Co. 1/64 Armor Battalion. There is no question that a tank round would be put in that Iraqi if he only had a slingshot! We never once considered any "cost" , nor was that ever an issue in our training. We just blew shit up, lots of it!

word Don.....
This Dumbass Marine is ready for Glamis....Mike and Dave are talking about it in another thread one that has far more merit than this.....
and BTW nothing is worse than being flank security in a frontal assault when the A-1's are moving with all they have......
A Hummer mounted TOW can just count on getitng bounced around....people have no idea how fast an a-1 can run even in washboard desert conditions...
