[QUOTE="rod, post: 3822414, member: 5382"] That picture was taken one day when we were moving to a different fire support base in a convoy of about 30 tracked vehicles (Armored Personal Carriers like mine and tanks) The whole trip was about 20 miles - all of it making our own roads through the brush/swamps and jungle. Needless to say after about a dozen vehicles go across a mud bog like this it gets a little soupy. I was assigned to this track which was the "mechanics track". Part of our job was to get people unstuck. After getting a couple tracks out we bogged down ourselves and were left behind with 2 other tracks by the rest of the convoy to fend for our selves (they told us to keep in radio contact-which didn't leave you with a warm fuzzy feeling). Eventually everyone got unstuck and we made it to our destination. That was a scary day. We could have been over ran very easily. [/QUOTE]
