Poor bastard. I suspect that's the end of the soldiers career, regardless of fault.

trying to reconstruct it in my head. you'd think the stryker would have hit the truck on the driver's side if it made a left turn into it's path.

It's a real weird intersection coming into/off the base, cross traffic, freeway and ramps all in the same vicinity. Just about got myself in the wrong spot when I was up there working about a year ago. I also had the indignity of getting myself AND my little car, Butters, escorted off the base. Sheesh. Talk about embarassing.

I hope you're wrong. It concerns me that young guys are being held accountable for actions that old farts like me would be no better at...driving a Stryker in traffic or deciding when to pull the trigger in combat.

Damn, and I thought having my car ran over by a semi years ago was bad.
