Praxis: Interceptor IOTV Body Armor Manuals

Okay, so one day you're walking down a road in your AO and you find this Interceptor body armor in a ditch, maybe it's got a few stains on it and what not. So, you say a quick "thank You!" to the Great Jehovah and go about your merry way wondering just what you may do to clean it up and wear it properly, since you have no experience with such garments. Now, if you had previously printed out the manuals below, you would have no problem.
TM 10-8470-208-10: TECHNICAL/OPERATOR MANUAL FOR IMPROVED OUTER TACTICAL VEST (IOTV) AND IMPROVED OUTER TACTICAL VEST GEN II (IOTV GEN II)
TM 10-8470-208-10: CREW/OPERATOR DAILY PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST FOR IMPROVED OUTER TACTICAL VEST (IOTV) AND IMPROVED OUTER TACTICAL VEST GEN II (IOTV GEN II)

Good stuff I`ve got a couple ,go on their site and they`ll tell you what these are capable of stopping. Just one word of caution : the government consider`s plates marked SAPI in large white letter`s to be stolen property, so keep that in mind if you run across any.

According to the Army's published data, at 400 yards a standard military issue 147 gr. FMJ 7.62x51 still has enough energy left to punch right through that armor. At 500 yds it has a 50/50 chance.

With a .223 the target has to be MUCH closer than 400 yds to guarantee penetration. That's why I bought a .308/7.62x51 instead of a .223. Much more lethal at greater range. Don't know about you folks but I prefer to be able to engage him before he is close enough to effectively engage me. I prefer HIM to have the honor of dying for his cause.
