Using a ladder from the Manville fire department, National Guard troops and a state trooper are rescued from hurricane Irene floodwaters on Main St. in Manville near Kennedy Blvd. after their trucks were overtaken by by the flood. The soldiers were attempting to rescue stranded town residents. (Tony Kurdzuk/The Star-Ledger)

They should be whipped to within an inch of their life with a rusty piece of rebar. I hate it when guys intentionally ruin fine equipment.

Re: National Guard Uses Submarines for Irene Response

In all fairness.. the story that's being put out is that they were in 2 feet of water and a levy broke and they were trying to escape the high water.

I'm impressed that the trucks were still running and driving at the beginning of the video. That's deep!
