Was the hamra battle that intense that it required HA to hit the streets ? I looked closely at the pictures again and I noticed some guys are from HA's "elite" units. I might be mistaken though.

Observer, western soldeirs train with atleast 75 pounds of gear. So I wouldn't be surprised if HA has the same standard (if not more). If they can run with a grad then I doubt a couple of RPGs would make a difference :P

Ok. But 75 lbs is half the 75 kg I mentioned.
