April 30, 2007, 12:40am (report abuse)I am against the war. But I am for our troops, who should receive adequate protection when we send them in harm's way. These helmet pad kits cost less than $100 each and can greatly reduce brain trauma injuries from IED, maybe even save some lives. Come on, this is a "no-brainer" - ALL our troops should be supplied with these kits to use as they see fit.
