1. German Airborne Mungo
Germany's Fallschirmjager (Airborne) troops have received a new
tactical vehicle known as the Mungo. This multipurpose vehicle with
a combat weight of 5.3 tons is covered in explicit detail. The text
outlines the Mungo's development and covers all technical aspects
of this unique vehicle. Meanwhile, a series of photos documents
interior and exterior details of the Mungo, as well as showing the
vehicle in action.
2. "Dagger Brigade" in Noble Shepherd
The 2nd "Dagger" Brigade of the 1st Infantry Division "Big Red One"
conducted a Mission Rehearsal Exercise in Germany prior to
deploying to Iraq. This article from the snow-covered Joint
Multinational Readiness Center (JMRC) in Hohenfels shows a whole
host of units in action. Photographs portray infantrymen and their
vehicles such as Humvees, M113A3s, Bradleys, M88A1s and M1A1 Abrams
tanks as they plough through the mud and ice. This article
represents a fine study of an American combined-arms brigade in
action.

helicopters, and this article examines all the helicopter types in
use with the U.S. Army. Content thus includes the AH-64D Apache,
OH-58D Kiowa Warrior, CH-47D Chinook, UH-60L Black Hawk and UH-60Q
Medevac. This piece shows these helicopters in action, with
