They went for a test with the Marine Corp and the stupid gunny had them remove all the grease and just use CLP. The weapons needs lithium grease in certain areas but then thought that was only for Arctic conditions. Lack of proper training in the regular force now SF they know how to make there weapons function all the time no mater where they are. That's why the SF world wide use the M4 including the French.
Just a word on my comment about the gunny. I don't think all Gunny Sgts are stupid just ones that don't want to learn something new. It could save his life or one of his troopers.

Yep, that was it. I wish I could find the topic where they had those scans. It was an interesting read, though nothing really came of the Rhino, so I'm guessing it had issues of its own.
And what you're saying about training makes sense.
