Marines Scramble To Save Humvee After VBIED Explosion
While using a Humvee to push an abandoned vehicle out of the road, the vehicle explodes, setting fire to the Humvee. In a valiant effort to save their equipment, ammunition and armaments, the Marines scramble onto the vehicle and begin stripping it... at considerable personal risk.

This was apparently the second time this had happened to the same group of soldiers in less than two weeks.
To quote one of the soldiers from this unit: "Welcome to f**king Iraq."

I am just glad I heard the last five seconds: "He's Ok!"
I assume the Marine is talking about the driver.
Thank God!

This is a old video, I think I saw this on Defencetech way back guesing 04'. They did it as a what not to do type video with EOD occations. A abandoned car in road deploying a humvee to push it out of the way rather than a EOD unit, the squad leader should be busted down for such.
If they really couldn't wait for EOD or that was not even a option either blow the dam thing up or swiss cheese it. After a good swiss cheese if it doesn't explode a push would probably be pretty safe.
This is a old video we have long moved pasted such not knowing better.
