Armoured suits are 'too goofy' say US troops

American troops have complained that a new armoured body suit designed to be worn in Iraq makes them look "goofy".
The water-cooled "alien spacesuits" are being handed out to turret gunners in their notoriously vulnerable Humvee vehicles.
OK, granted, they're not macho. But they're every bit as manly as what
the opposition is wearing.
I know, they don't all wear pink tutus.
Some of them wear blue ones.
