   In his message, Pat Kauffold says that there could be problems using
cruise missiles as they have never been tested under battle conditions.
   
   Rather than limiting their use in Iraq, wouldn't this increase the
likelihood of their use?
    
   How else does one test weapons in the battlefield without having a
battlefield?  The situation in Iraq is a golden opportunity for the
battlefield testing of arms and systems.
