Discarded vests go to Iraq
Just heard this on the local NPR station. Apparently the NYPD will be getting new, improved bulletproof vests. Yay.
As a side note, the announcer said, the leftover vests will be sent to troops in Haiti and Iraq.
That's right. Only the best, obsolete, second-hand equipment for our fighting men and women!
