The Bullet Proof Polo Will Make A Great Addition To The Military

By Margarita Joseph


Safety is always a high level concern for people considered "high level targets". People like the President of the United States, or the Prime Minister of Great Britain. There are always people who are considered very important and who need to remain safe at all times. People like this are exactly what the bullet proof polo was made for.

IT is not something that anybody expects or even believes. In nearly all cases of people wearing a bullet proof vest are wearing an actual vest. A very large and bulky and very noticeable vest. Even the versions that are smaller and lighter are hard to conceal. Hidden under a shirt is not really hidden. Not when it makes you look like the hulk under the shirt.

The advantage is the fact that the wearer could live through a firefight, providing he does not get shot in the head. This is where the major downfall of a vest such as this lies. When a contract is taken out on a high value target they might put a vest such as one described to attempt to keep the person alive or at least keep him from getting shot.

This is a very difficult subject and one that every one takes very seriously. Some of these have been suggested to be put into schools because of the recent events involving school shooting. It would be a great idea however if someone really wants to shoot to kill, a vest will not stop them from aiming and shooting for the head.

This is where the good guys win one. Because the person being protected was wearing a bullet proof polo it did not look like he was wearing protection at all. This is where the bad guys went wrong. They assumed that he was an easy kill because of no protection so they went for the kill shot in the chest. Problem for them was that he was wearing something.

Because the target is wearing normal clothes the shooter aims for the chest and takes two or three easy shots. He does this because not only will the shots kill him, but they are easy because the chest is a much bigger target than the head. Since the shooter is not worried about missing, he takes a couple shots and gets away. What he does not realize is that the target was wearing protective clothing.

The military will be thrilled to have something like this that can provide the same protection that a huge vest could without all of the weight. Soldiers already carry their body weight in gear in the hot sun walking for miles. Anything that can lighten that load will be greatly appreciated and heavily supported.

Things like this can happen all the time. It might not be as far fetched as some might believe. This is especially true in the Middle East where private military contractors are still working in high numbers. The bullet proof polo would sure come in handy there at least.
