    Yeah I remember that part! They brought SAM launchers, radar, jammers and camo netting to a zombie fight.

    I really like how they showed the military adapting though. Flying C-130s sparingly to save fuel. Running attack dirgibles, and returning infantry to formation tactics with .22 rifles and bite resistant suits.

      LOL, I can see the Pentagon showing up at CCI:

      “We need 500 million .22LR rounds.”

      “Well cert… Uh… 500 million?”

      “Here’s the purchase order. Good to pick up next Friday?”

      Not a fan of the movie, but Brad Pitt taping magazines around his forearms for armor was brilliant. Light, 100% tooth-proof, easy to shed, easy to replace, all that.
