I took this photo at the PX in Baghdad Green Zone across from Saddam Hussein's Palace in 2006.
I was a Mechanical Engineer working for a Construction Company building small Potable Water
Plants throughout Iraq. We completed 70 small plants in small villages. You should have seen
the appreciation and smiles of the village folks and especially the children.

That's a M1117 Armored Security Vehicle (ASV) made by Textron. It's still in service with the US Army. It does bear a striking resemblance to a CG V-100, I'm sure they share a common linage. The M1117 is probably something of a son, grandson, or nephew of the V-100.
