Back in the early 80's the Army developed the doctrine of Light Infantry. The key point to this was it's 100% Mechanized, everyone rides, nobody walks. At this point you should rent and watch "The Pentagon Wars" with Kelsey Grammer. With the Bradley over budget the Army lacked any general purpose APC so they bought large numbers of H1's to fill the gap in this mechanized fantasy.

Now were building those ugly IED proof 6x6's <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" /> There ugly but anything beats the sand bag I used to sit on in a H1 to protect the "Jewels" <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
