The Problem With Pentagon Wars

>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=gmuVYVREGgE

Pentagon Wars, a movie centering around the troubled development of the M2 / M3 Bradley Fighting Vehicle, is fairly popular in the Armored Fighting Vehicle community. In reading the book written by Colonel James Burton, I think that people should take both the movie and his memoir with a pile of salt. Burton belongs to a think tank group called the Reformers , which to be quite frank is a lot of people making outdated and misinformed ideas / claims. Burton's recollection of the Bradley program is incorrect and further distorted by the movie. • Check the channel About section for the link to the creator of my profile picture. • Songs used (in order from first to last): • Blade Runner (1997 game, Frank Klepacki) - Blade Runner Blues • Halo 3: ODST - Rain (Deference for Darkness) • Sources: • The Bradley and how it Got that Way, Technology, Institutions, and the Problem of Mechanized Infantry in the United States Army – W.
