Russia kidnaps/frees Georgian soldiers, steals U.S. vehicles

Um, it wasn't the US troops caught using them, it was the Georgians.

Do your instructors typically give you free Humvees? Cause ours don't.

Yeah, I kinda guess that US troops weren't caught using them, since it wasn't plastered all over the news if it were.

They were awaiting shipment back to the US after the exercise.

Any speculation from me is just as good as yours. Who's to say what the circumstances regarding the Humvees? All is fair in love and war.

POTI, Georgia (AP) -- Russian soldiers took about 20 Georgian troops prisoner at a key Black Sea port in western Georgia on Tuesday, blindfolding them and holding them at gunpoint, and commandeered American Humvees awaiting shipment back to the United States.
