Lan(d) Warriors

Category: technology |

Captain Jack Moore, the commander of the 4/9’s “Blowtorch” company, peers into his Land Warrior monocle. Inside is a digital map of Tarmiyah, a filthy little town about 25 kilometers north of Baghdad that’s become a haven for Islamists. Blue icons show two of his platoons sweeping through the western half of the town. Two other icons represent Blowtorch soldiers who have teamed up with special forces and Iraqi Army units to raid local mosques with insurgent ties.

…

[Captain Aaron] Miller is still not happy with how much the system weighs. “Look, I need this like I need a 10th arm,” he sighs. And all this stuff (Land Warrior does), my cell phone basically does the same at home.“
