Some of the vets I've spoken to shunned the body armor in favor of higher mobility. I've already told the story of the uparmored HMMWVs several times over, but the fact really is that we have a nasty habit of not being prepared training- or equipment-wise to go into combat. Unrealistic expectations, largely.
