Saw a Liberal-Democrat spokesman on the news yesterday, condeming the fact that ( according to Government figures ) upto 25% of HMForces have bought kit, as the issue stuff is not upto the job. Personally, I think the figue is somewhere in the region of 75%, but there you go...
Also, how much ofthis "self -procurement is down to lack of quality, and how much to the inability to get it through stores!
