Just for patrols that they've been using them.
The Light Fighters that wanted to kill armor off
(AGS, etc) are now paying the price. M113's are a
short term solution, more Strykers is a long term
solution (frankly I think a high low mix is best).
Something smaller than the Stryker is probably
warranted. Hell, my Ferret would be better than a
HMMWV for combat type patrols.
