How many pounds of protection do soldiers carry?
Soldiers and Marines in Iraq and Afghanistan routinely carry between 60 and 100 pounds of gear including body armor, weapons and batteries. The heavy loads shouldered over months of duty contribute to the chronic pain suffered by soldiers. A 2001 Army Science Board study recommended that no soldier carry more than 50 pounds for any length of time. ChaCha!
