Like a kid in a candy store

Just recently I had a fun experience driving Army trucks up and down hills and across rough terrain. It was super fun as I moved 5-ton trucks and tracked vehicles up a hill so steep you couldn't see the ground through the windshield. Never fear, though, because Army trucks are tough and I was able to make it up each time. Here are some pictures of the types of vehicles I drove, and am now licensed to drive:

M923 5-ton truck. Crew up to 3. Not comfortable to drive at all.

M1165 HMMWV. This is an uparmored version of the standard Humvee. Not a bad ride.

M1083 Medium Tactical Vehicle (5-ton). 3 personnel ride in style and comfort in the cab.

M577 Command Post. A bunch of soldiers can use this vehicle as a command post. It is fun to drive, but not as fun as my tank!
