For those unlucky enough to be stuck fighting in Iraq, the last thing they need is a busted crotch on their fatigues. But when the U.S. government is too cheap to provide anything but a single-stitch where it matters most, blown-out pants are apparently an all-too-often occurrence in the Army. Since soldiers began reporting "crotch durability problems" two years ago, they're working on keeping our boys in combat all covered up.
