They wouldn't be legally able to operate such rigs. Best bet is to give
them one band, say 2m, or 70cm.

He should check. If he's operating under military authorization, then it's
quite possible he's allowed to do this.

If not, then I don't see how he's allowed to do it at all in the first
place,
REGARDLESS of the radio he's using.

And why in the world suggest FRS? The new kiddie/CB band. At least
go GMRS with the higher power or MURS. Better yet, get an itinerant
authorization on UHF.
