You are mixing up two different things though. Sure, people may die through human error as far as like friendly fire and things of that nature but dying over shitty equipment is the fucking worse. Just because you signed your life away doesn't mean that you should be given shit gear and thrown to the wolves. I'm not saying it has to be top of the line gear because the government is cheap and likes to cut costs but certain things shouldn't be better than the bare minimum if it can protect a life. They end up just paying out more money anyways with life insurance to the family members.
