Another interesting possibility, which I almost wrote about, is robotic warfare. If there are truckloads of robot shells in the combat zone and US troops who clock into at an office building in the US to pilot them, how can an enemy fight that? Every time you destroy a bot, another one walks out of the warehouse. Our soldiers are already trained for this. Just like a video game, you get 'killed' then respawn.
