These days the US military has gotten heavily into the use of simunitions (or at least SOCOM has -- Big Army et al doesn't seem to have gotten quite as switched on) which are pretty similar to paint balls. They really help with people being MILES brave and playing the game rather than training. When you put a pain penalty onto doing the wrong thing it really makes people live right.
