What the yanks leave behind.

Post by josephwells »

Do the Americans intend to take all the equipment back from Iraq with them or is it cheaper/safer/easier to leave it in Iraq, I have read that in GW1 a huge amount of kit and ordanance was left behind, whats the score??

a mates sister recently got back from iraq..

during mixed nation PT she said the americans would ditch there kit to make it lighter to run then wait till the UK troops came back thinking they could proof it and ghet it back off them!

also cant american troops buy replacement items if they loose/break there own where as us brits cant, stuff such as firing pins etc...

cheers, davo
