Another issue with Simunition rounds is that there is no way to simulate the support weapons in the same manner. For the last couple of years, every time we do FIBUA trg, someone always come up with the gripe, "You know, a grenade would come in handy about now...". Being able to absolutely convince a 19 year old fresh out of battle school that "This is not DOOM, keep your head down", when he is sporting a third nipple in the middle of his forehead is a great training aid though. If only because you only have to tell them once. We trialed the things a couple of years ago in ValCartier, Helmets and AFV Goggles, the rest of the crap we wear came later. Welcome to the new army. SAFETY,SAFETY,SAFETY.
