While on route in Eastern Afghanistan, a U.S. Army convoy gets attacked. This soldier took two RPGs to the right side of his turret. (He is alive and well and back in the U.S.)

Those HMMWV's (Hummer) are tough vehicles.

The Chevrolet dealer that I use works on them for the military and you should see them up close. The glass and armor on them is something else. With the weight of them I am surprised that the rack can even put them in the air.
