M998 HMMVW
Operator: US Army 4th Infantry Division
Location: Fort Carson, CO (USA)
Timeframe: 1991-1993
Personal Interest:
During my tour at Ft. Carson, Transportation companies of the 4th Infantry Division (Mechanized) operated the M998 HMMVW to move personnel and cargo. One HMMVW was assigned to my detachment so we could rapidly deploy weather sensors and radio equipment. I was often assigned to drive this vehicle or man the gun, both of which were rather exhilarating. The M998 was frequently operated on the Fort Carson reservation and the Piñon Canyon Maneuver Site for exercises. They were painted a variety of NATO camouflage and desert sand colors, sometimes mismatched because parts were interchangeable.
