I say give the troops the best protection known to man before making the Democratic Party's entitlement leeches in New Orleans look like they hit the lottery.
The Democrats are the ones that promised them it they voted for them they'd take care of them from cradle 'til grave. Let them find the money to make good on their promises, or be exposes for the crooked frauds they are.

I think I've seen a Hunter Box on "Over There".

What's the advantage of MTTCS over LAVs and Stryker? Why not use a Stryker instead?

A goggle search can take you to the "Gun Trucks" site from VN. The trucks they build look very much like the Hunter Box.

Gun trucks were popular during the Vietnam War. Livermore researchers designed the kit with input from Vietnam-era gun truck veterans
Thank you Vietnam Vets!!
