Default Burn baby Burn!!

MASS-6's HMMWV. They seem to burn pretty good. Maybe we should work on that issue.

THIS IS NOT COMBAT RELATED.

It happened at Camp Pendleton when they Marines encountered mechanical troubles with the truck and the engine started racing. The pictures show the end result.

Wait til you see an M60 or Abrams burn because of folks not cleaning out the engine compartment and the sludge collects.
