You can't forget Propaganda. If the image of the US army is the image that the game portrays it would minimize such embarrassments as the SAS refusing to work with any member of the US army. Or not having the US army have some credibility when they claim bombing their allies was an accident and nto the result of gung ho pilots with a rambo complex.

The world wide image of the US army and even your allies and soldiers in allied armies is that the US army is a well equip troop of red neck idiots. We liek your gear, yoru friendly and all, but when the fighting breaks out you get the fuck away from us please.
