Now that is an honest press release... as long as the vehicles w/o armor really are NOT occupied when they move north.

Most of the troops are going to fly in, and they will use the armored vehicles left behind by the relieved unit (as the reporter knew before he had the soldier ask the question).

Are the trucks that are going to carry them armored or not?

Hubby's unit drove un-armored vehicles from Kuwait to Iraq...15mos later their vehicles were trucked back down and the troops flown....that was 6mos ago...so they have been doing this for awhile....

I'll admit that's a long drive from Kuwait, but that is an area that they least need the armor. "Up north" is where they need it.
