Hurricane Irene - Military Convoy Goes Underwater in Manville, New Jersey PART 1

[Bltheman1]

Way to waste tax payers money on two 100,000 vehicles. They can't even save themselves.

[Dragonmalkier]

They used what they were given. I doubt they had the choice between an amphibious vehicle and the deuce-and-a-half they were driving... You calling them stupid is probably helping them -and yourself- out.

[Cobropta]

obviously they were trying to help, but this idea wasn't the brightest.

"Why would you take a guy that can't swim?" <- that made me laugh

[MarqTran]

I'm in the army and anybody in it can tell you it doesn't use common sense. But this had to be their own decision. A commander or high ranking nco wouldn't have put their soldiers in that situation

[usmcroman]

Oh believe me I have walked in there shoes and am walking in there shoes, they are dumb ass fuck for even trying this, Its one thing to have a snorkel and use it, its another to have one and lives on board putting them in danger and im sure they knew at least that one guy couldnt swim... I would say the unit told them to do this but since there are only two vics im sure it was there own call. DUMB ASSES.

[Chiffonade]

Seriously... Is it necessary to call them stupid? I hope you never need help. I hope they let your ass drown.

watch?v=4XZre2xeBPM&feature=re­lated

[davezetino]

hahaha!!!



[karlaxwp]

This is the stupidest thing I've ever seen....

[SuperJohn626]

Maybe using boats be more practical...

[IanJamesMullins]

@SuperJohn626 Maybe learning how to write a sentence would also be practical? Didn't you mean to say would be more practical?

[SuperJohn626]

@IanJamesMullins Yes, mom. :)

[elak1999]

To the person or people who shot this video, shame on you, you ignorant person! These men have left their families & their homes in harms way to help those worse off than themselves. Maybe a poor choice, but THEY ARE NOT IDIOTS! These men haven't slept since Sat afternoon to provide for the residents of Manville. They are citizen soldiers: a father, a brother, a son, a neighbor. Don't criticize until you walk in their shoes. You should thank a soldier for the freedoms you enjoy.

[BooooDog]

@elak1999 I agree with you. The guy's that shot this video are the complete stupid idiot's. Those fuckers are critisising our military that is keep their town safe and saving people. The morons out here never cease to amaze me.

[TheeGamingNerds]

@elak1999 He's not saying he's not thankful, but they clearly are retarded...How did they not know they can't go through water? I'm glad they protect us for our country but if this is how they use their "common sense" to protect us...I'm fucking scared.

[pjohnson81]

@elak1999 Im a solider... and yes these guys are pretty stupid. There are normally control measures in place to prevent something like that from happening.

[gustavshka]

@elak1999 Dont Dramatize idiot!

they are just stupid american retards soldiers, they have no brain to think about boats or something more useful like real soldiers like Russians or someone else...

[TheGlock9mm]

@gustavshka fuck you, you dont have to like our country, if youre in it and dont like it, get out, we have too many un-patriotic poeple here anyway. grow the fuck up and show respect, theyre doing theyre job.

[Lostprophetzzz]

@TheGlock9mm you know it's part of every human being's right to both free speech and to question their country and government?

it's something you "AMERICAN PATRIOTS" always preach but never practice....

imagine if all the citizens of america thought this way prior to america gaining independence?

if all people who wanted a free america were silenced for being "disloyal" to the british hierarchy?

actually bad example... the world would be a MUCH better place in that scenario......

[philipnmayo1]

When I first saw this I thought a bunch of Mexicans broke into the armory. all kidding aside, this was the dumbest thing I have ever seen by a military unit.

[jaydak99]

I'm not impressed with the decision making ability of those guardsmen, but those trucks are impressive. Used the snorkel all the way up untill the truck went all the way under and floated!

[musikerpr]

Hahaahhaa OMGGGG!

[meakins1985]

that is why you should always send in the SEABEE'S instead of some weekend warriors. now cause of them ill be having training on Friday about why there stupid

[usmcroman]
