The vehicle in the middle was the only one armored. It was shot in the transmission. The main gun firing at them was a PKM with AP. Three members died from their wounds: James Hunt, 35, USA -- Stefan Surette, 30, Canada -- Chris Ahmelman, 34, Australia -- RIP -- The after action review can be read at http://mountainrunner.us/files/biap/ERSM_AAR_200405.doc
