From the article

Firing an M4 carbine kind of hurts. It’s an extremely loud and powerful weapon.

Soldiers told me how some troops in Afghanistan were still using paper maps from the 90s. So an Army private being deployed might be navigating his hometown with GPS on a smartphone one day and then confined to a pencil and protractor in combat in Afghanistan a few weeks later.

Jesus H. Christ, I swear, one fine day you'll be able to immobilize an entire army by stealing their batteries.

Nerdy hipsters say the dumbest shit.

I’m pretty squeamish at the thought of technology that’s designed to help soldiers kill better

Journalist? I'm not sure how a journalist contends that the "...[FONT=Georgia, serif]Optic seems geared towards more efficient defense rather than more vicious offense." [/FONT]Then again, in his original version, it read "viscous."

Using the terms "endemic" and "fratricide" doesn't make you a journalist, either. But I suppose typing and uploading does.

Hey, looky--now I'm a journalist.

GPS denied - don't even need to steal batteries

Amen! Kind of like all of the kids that can't add, subtract, multiply and divide any more with just a pencil.

Pretty amazing.

I am still waiting for somebody to develop my idea of a Google Glass device co-witnessed with an EoTech type device.
