How about the 20 abrams?
During ODS we had some really heavily hit tanks that were not declared lost and were rebuilt. Are they totalling them out easier now?
Anyway, thanx, appreciate the skinny on the Stryker numbers.

I can think of 9 m1's off the top of my head. Shek is right about the secondary fires. Thats one thing thats different from ODS. Alot of times with the IED's it will start the tank on fire and like shek said, the decision is made that its too dangerous with the live ammo on board so its let to burn down.
The number that seems high to me is the M1's that have and will be rebuilt. 230 in 05 and over 700 in 06 seems very high to me.
