Those reflective strips sure work, nice series in the dark of some interseting equipment.  Wonder if it was coming up from Yuma?

Most likely coming from Yermo. Probably just finished a session at Ft Irwin and the National Training Center (NTC).

Equipment from 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team 1st Infantry Division from Fort Riley, KS. Had just completed NTC Training Rotation 22-09, which was an ERDE Emergency Response Deployment Exercise. They had completed a NTC Rotation earlier in the year. I would be interested if this equipment was even off loaded at Ft Riley as they were just announced to be heading to Europe.
