Soldier Tests Bullet Proof Glass on HMMWV

A soldier fires a few rounds into the window glass of a wrecked HMMWV. The rounds (eventually) strike the window, fracturing the glass, but do not penetrate. Doubtless a novelty to Russian soldiers. A lot of American veterans complain about the HMMWV, but the platform did have some positive traits. I am glad someone had been able to gain some benefit out of the vehicle.
