We at NRO are honored by how many of our military readers we’re hearing from today. Here’s one making a correction to the New York Times story cheering GM layoffs mentioned over at Planet Gore:
Has anybody pointed out to the Times editors that the Hummer is derived from the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV, or Humvee), and is certainly not a “relative of the Abrams tank?” (seeing as how they have different frames, different power plants, different drive trains, different sizes, armor, mission, etc etc.)
In fairness to the Times, it should be noted that both come in green.
