Do you really believe that vehicles in Iraq are being deadlined over windshield wipers? Be real! Some vehicles don't even have windshields!

You guys really need to see some of this stuff to believe it.

True, but I used to be a maintenance officer. Any non-working piece of safety equipment would be a safety deadline. Doesn't mean you can't use it, only that the commander has to make a decision that the benefits of using it outweight the risks. In Iraq, I don't think non-working windshield wipers would keep a vehicle deadlined.
