Blown tire on the Buffalo

One of better milblogs in Iraq that hasn’t shut down, courtesy of Teflon Don:

"The last time we recovered the beast was just after we started working in FallujaEOD had set up a controlled detonation of an IED, and assured the BUFFALO crew that they were far enough away to be clear of the blast. Long story short, they weren’t, and we had to tow it back and replace three tires before heading back out to restart the mission. Ironically, the one time the BUFFALO was seriously damaged by an IED, we managed to clank all the way home before the shrapnel rattling in the cylinders destroyed the engine."
