If I would have been in my last unit a year earlier I would have been in that battle. I have a buddy who drove an armored D9 through it taking down buildings from the outside. https://www.strategypage.com/military_p ... 05262.aspx
He even ran over a couple of those idiots with his, including dropping the blade on one. I believe the military has the Grizzly in service now, but that was something else that had been talked about for serval years. That is an Abrams chassis with the turret removed, a backhoe added and a plow plus a couple MCLCs added on for good measure. The idea was to create a complete breaching vehicle for route clearance and dealing with IEDs.
If life were fair every guy's dick would be the same size.

its really a bit mindblowing the difference in size from a D8 to a D9 and then to a D10. I rode in a D10 when we were building a runway one time. It was set with 1 ripper tooth on the back and was pushing up huge sandstone boulders the size of pickup trucks. I want to say it took 3 haul trucks to move the D10 onto the job. In pieces.

Henry Heim, visits the USS Arizona Memorial, as part of a journey to say 'hello' and 'goodbye' to old friends. Heim was stationed at Hickam Airfield during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.
