Yeah let the Army say that IED's are a common occurance, then watch the recruitment numbers drop even more. Lets be honest now, if you join the Army based on a commercial you are being fairly naive.
All BS aside, it doesn't matter what the Army commercials portray or what they say, to say that war has become "safer" is just stupid. You cannot justify his statement based on a recruitment commercial, if you do, your being just as naive as the person making the stupid statement.
Back on topic: the fact the engine started on the tank is incredible. Russian tanks were pretty well built, and definitely introduced a lot of new designs which are still used today. Glad to see history not being lost, and even cooler to see original German markings on the tank. The US was known to use a Panther or 2 from the Germans as well.
