Is that truck or van suspicious?
Do you think it might contain an IED?
You don't want to risk EOD taking a peek?

Your local tank has the solution!

Ahhh not a tanker but dam those pics look good. I'll have to ask my friend if he has any videos like that. I know he does Wink

They say tanks are are dying breed on the modern battlefield...I will say this. No one on the modern battlefield has ever turned down tanks Wink Matter of fact on every patrol brief I can remember a section of tanks was always requested...I wonder why?

Nothing to do with the OP, but as a mechanic I just love the STAB showing in this video.

Truly Poetry in motion!

I seriously doubt that will buff out.

In Iraq, armor was awesome. Sure, streets were tight and angles were odd but they provided the necessary cover most of the time. The only time I felt safer was when we had a gunship of some sort watching from above, though I and 7 others were almost victims of a newly minted Apache pilot with an itchy trigger finger. Eek

I don't think that's going to buff out.

Sure did.

I wonder... Was that a VBIED, or do all trucks blow up that good when hit with a HE round?

Oh I definently go VBIED. HEAT rounds aren't that cool. I actually wonder what kind of rounds we gave them.
