Mr. T played B.A. Barracus. The B.A. stood for "Bad Attitude"

And Mr. T stood for "Terrible shot!"

In all of those episodes the A-Team must've fired off a million rounds, and never hit anything! Special Forces alright... Special Olympics!

I seem to remeber that in the Crusades, most of the European casualties were from heat exhaustion...

Personally, I prefer mobility over protection, but then again I don't have to step into the path of incoming fire.

I like mobility better too. Plus I'm a crappy runner to begin with, so more weight equals slow, equals shot in the head.

Bummer.
