Get hold of a copy of Mechanix Illustrated from the early sixties that had an article about these suits as the cover story. This is not a new idea, and if the suits can do half of what the designers of the sixties version envisioined, they will be worth far more than what they cost. The suit shown on Headline News this morning is only a skeletal framework, while the original article was a complete suit that provided protection against chemical and biological and radiation warfare. BTW, if hte soldier does happen to fall down, the servomotors in the suit amplify the soldier's strength, allowing him to get up much easier.
