"Well the Pentagon is ticked about troops acquiring their own equipment again -- Army Thin-Skinned Over Homemade Armor (Lieb, Wa. Post, 12/26/03). Appararently the 428th Reserve Army Transportation Company got their hometown (Jefferson City,Mo.) funeral director to pitch in $4000 to pay for extra armior for their vehicles. The Pentagon may not allow delivery of the armor because they haven't approved it. The problem faced by the 428th is that their vehicles were not designed for combat and won't repel even small arms fire."
