At the end of the 4rth movie u see some men moving up the beach. They seem to be moving at around 50 mph! Damn those troops can run fast, or someone needs to slow em down.
But u out of all ppl should know how much all that gear wieghed + they got soaked in the water making them heavier. Them troops had some seriose weight on em and they r moving uphill too so i think theyre going a bit too fast.
They look fine to me. And as Burgen said, I think you'd be running just as fast as you possibly could if you had a group of MG42's pointed at you !! You'd be suprised how fast you can run once Adrenalin kicks in !!

yes that stuff weighs a lot (especially that damn assault vest), but not so much that it hinders movement, otherwise what's the point? but they just didn't look like they were moving THAT fast... ...but I really didn't take to much note though.
...kinda like when you look at an american football player, he's got tons of padding on and when it rains or snows durring a game it turns into wet padding. But they can run really fast anyway.
