I'm reading a story about this soldier losing both legs to an IED while patrolling in Fallujah. I look at the slide show and the guy drives a Hummer?!?!
No legs.
He was in Iraq to provide security to the innocent Iraqi's.
His hummer provides a lot of security to his physical well being. Don't want his feet or ankles getting hurt in a crash.
Therefore the same reason he was in Iraq is the same reason he drives a hummer.
