We used the term "gun truck" on convoys in Iraq to distinguish between those vehicles that had a crew served weapon mounted (such as the Hummers seen in the video) and those that did not (ambulances, some of the new LMTVs, or other Hummers without mounted weapons such as EOD or the USAF close air guys).

Well then, I stand corrected.

I guess that I'm just a REMF weenie these days eating fat-pills in COCOM HQ.

Sheesh.

Gun truck.
