I'm just curious but, being in the G-Military , why are Laguna , Kiros and Ward allowed to carry their own weapons ? ie. MG , Harpoon and Katals ( or something ... ) instead of the standard Galbadian sword. I know it's for the sake of their individual characteristics and keeping them unique from the average Galbadian grunt( it'd just be boring to have them all with swords) , but I'm assuming that under normal circumstances soldiers would rarely be allowed to carry weapons other than those supplied to them.
