IITSEC Day 1, Take 2

I just saw one of the absolutely stupidest things I think I've ever seen in the military...

The FCS guys are convinced that it's a good idea to have AKO connectivity in the FCS vehicles to download digital training into the tracks and control it from the vehicle. That's fine if you just want to do some switchology training or something in the motor pool. But these guys want to train for the mission while en route to the mission. That's right - switch your sights over to the simulator view while road-marching to your target! Who needs local security! And what E3 won't be using the AKO connection to send a letter home when he should be scanning a sector of fire. Man - who comes up with this crap?!
