Talibjhan base in Musa Qala district of Helmand province on January 20, 2011.

During the patrol we broke a wheel on a little track. The military track is rolling this little track to avoid being exploded on mine! Americans don't use Humvees anymore! They were changed by big vehicle with a bottom as on a ship to dissect the explosion. After explosion the vehicle loos there wheels but whole track doesn't get any damages. In general this vehicles are very reliable but there are very huge!
