Just got back from a month of training at NTC and it was wild lol. Here are a few pics of just one incident over the last 30 days. Here we have what use to be a fully operational HMWVV that was ran over by an M88 which is used to recover and tow Abrams tanks. The 88 won.

Good one, high centered one on a rock east of bicycle lake, punctured the tank, had to nav on foot at night, beating. Do not miss that place.

Luckily nobody was in the HMWVV but I'm sure it's gonna cost someone an arm and a leg to replace it

Looks like a jeep that was rolled over by an M60 when I was at Ft Hood. Lt from an artillery unit parked at the bottom of Manning Mountain waiting for an armor column to clear. The last tank in line had a complete hydraulic failure and rolled backwards down the hill and over the jeep.
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

In Germany, we had a HMMET and M88 run head on into each other at night while driving in blackout drive (no lights, using NVGs). The blade on the M88 pierced the cab of the HMMET and severed the driver's leg 70%. Was a bad night for our battalion.
