You know a lot of guys agree with both of us. And by guys I mean grunts. I know they are just opinions but when I want to move fast, I don't need 20lbs+++ of extra shit when I need to move. We did have a couple of guys wear the stuff, It was their call. But when given the choice, the vast majority of us preferred to go out naked. And I suspect that had you been given a choice you too would have opted out. Maybe armor is much better and lighter than it was 10 years ago. but probably not.
I am a flv and my stinking hot blouse kind of guy.
Obviously they help if hit. common consensus is they make you more likely to take a hit. Buy soft armor and a helmet.
