Good idea though, let's put lights and sirens on a MILITARY VEHICLE so #1 it can be easily seen and #2 can be identified from a distance so said bombmaker can hit the HUMMER easier.  You didn't hear the driver of the Hummer WHALE'n on the horn? It sounds quiet because the cabin of the HUMMER is probably at least a LVL1.
Maybe instead of complain'n about hearts and minds you should enlist and walk a mile a soldier's shoes. You'd make general in no time with ideas like yours.
I love when people complain when they have no idea what it's like over there.

You can have the lights and sirens turn on only at certain times and then have them retract back into the HUMVEE when you need to maintain some level of stealth.
Your narrow-minded viewpoint is what is killing soldiers every day. How can you say that winning hearts and minds isn't important?
P.S. I'm enlisting in May.
