Hi list,
I heard from friends of MV club in Italy, that the US Army is able to track
stolen HUMVEEs by using satellites and electronic devices (transponder) installed
in the HUMVEE frame. Is this true or is this a legend ?
They told me that they were able to find 4 stolen HUMVEEs sold to 4 different
unaware buyers in northern Italy.
