Manville, NJ – The LMTV is a highly capable truck designed to move anything anywhere for the military. They’re also popular rescue vehicles because of their ability to drive in high water. But, as the NJ National Guard discovered during the Hurricane Irene aftermath, and as shown in this video, there are limits.

Tipshin. would they go in the ocean with it? As soon as the water reached over the hood they should have known to stop.Its not a submarine.
If I didn’t see this I would not have believed it!
why did they attempt to drive? why didn’t they take a boat?
And they call it military “intelligence”????
unfrikinreal!!! and these are the soldiers that were relying on to protect us.?? shame.!
I Guess thats why they are so long in Iraq they dont know whats flying
One thing’s for sure the person who filmed this probably never lifted a finger to help anyone, and here he goes on and on how stupid the soldiers are, this guy is ten times more stupid then any soldier out there in such terrible conditions just to help idiots like him.
They surely did make a mistake by going into such deep water, but let’s remember that they are out there to save lives.
#7 , these soldiers are funded by yo & I, & it’s only fair to require they do a good job, & certainly that they should know what they’re doing.
Wow here you can see that they couldn’t care less about “OUR” money. We pay for these trucks from our tax money. Who gives them the right to be so careless and just drive through under water for the trucks to sink????
okay before anyone continues bashing our military, these trucks are capable and designed to drive into deep water. There is an exhaust pipe and intake pipe located above the cab of the truck that allows it to do so. the only reason why they stopped is because for some reason, water entered the cab and before they knew it, the water was over their heads. They tried to hold their breath as long as they could in hopes of getting to higher ground, but in the end, they could not, so the stopped the trucks and climbed on top.
This piece should be removed by Vos Iz Neias. Mocking the men and women of the United States military is reprehensible and certainly not acceptable for frum yidden. These people risk their own lives every day and sacrifice a lot to protect the citizens of this country. Vos Iz Neias has a responsibility not only to present the news, but to prevent blatant chilul Hashem. Shame on you to those who made a mockery of these men.
