I'm glad, as a veteran, you have a lot of background and knowledge of how things work in the army. I am glad that a source such as yourself can help clarify how things work, and do it with no slant as well.

Here's some truths for ya, armchair general:
Most of the ammunition used in the armed forces goes to training.
Quite a few soldiers, in country, never even fire a round.
The M2 is an anti-equipment weapon. Notice that "equipment" word thing up there? Let me break it down, equipment /= personnel.
America is fighting in multiple fronts, let me cover a few: Philippines, Afghanistan, Iraq, Columbia, Argentina, Ethiopia, just to name a few.
Oh, and quite a bit of our ammunition is also donated to host countries of countries we support and arm.

The author went through his method/logic and showed an honest intention to uncover the truth. Why? BECAUSE YOUR GOVERNMENT HIDES THE TRUTH FROM ITS OWN PEOPLE.

If the public actually knew how many bullets were fired at human beings or "equipment" everyday in the name of the "war on terror", it would make it that much more unpopular. Statistics like that tend to make an impression because it adds some scope to something big and abstract like the "war on terror."

I was directed to this page because I too was curious how many bullets American forces are using in Iraq every day and the truth is nowhere to be found.

And America giving bullets to its allies in order to kill people in other countries still represent American bullets killing people in other countries.
