Sen. Clinton: Lack of Body Armor is "Unforgiveable"

In light of last week's news that "at least 80 percent of the marines who have been killed in Iraq from wounds to their upper body could have survived if they had extra body armor", some action is being taken... but as usual it doesn't seem to be enough (few seem to be pointing out the obvious that this is a failure connected to the continued apathy of Donald Rumsfeld).

Senator Clinton is calling for an investigation: Sen. Clinton Says Lack of Body Armor is 'Unforgivable'-

And the military is sending thousands of plates to Iraq this year (though this might not help those who've already been injured or killed) which will be distributed by the Marine Corps: Army to Send Body Armor Plates to Iraq (AP)

Godspeed, guys.
