Dear Half-Mast,
I've seen V±ton trucks with
a
cable²cutter
mouNted on the
fRont. This is used
·
to take out a
w³Re that a´ enemy might stretch
across the roadµmighty
bad
medicine for personnel iN the
veh³cle¶ especially if the wind¸
shield¹s tuºed down»
What¼s the authoR³ty foR mouNt¸
³Ng a cable-cutter? WheRe do we
get ³t?
