3rd Infantry Division soldier Kevin Garrad exchanged fire with an insurgent (armed with an AK-47) within a range of only a few feet, leaving the other party dead and Garrad alive and well, thanks to an iPod in the pocket. The 20GB iPod thwarted penetration of Garrad's body armor at the site of the pocket on his left chest. It's a miracle he's alive, and he might even be blessed by the angels of portable audio! Flickr pix were spotted by an Apple engineer who's looking to get Garrad's iPod replaced.

During Korea, it was small, pocket bibles with metal covers. Today, it's iPods!
Someone is dead... and this chap is getting a new iPod. Hmm... something is wrong with this world.
out of context...and context is everything. C'mon you know how easy an I-pods scratches, you think it can stop a bullit?
Its not about stopping the bullet, its about slowing it down enough the the body armor can stop it.
