I was in the Guard not too long ago, and we moved vehicles on commercial carriers all the time. They were bonded and background checked, and most times they were just unassuming, average looking trucks and drivers, no big commercial outfits or driver's uniforms. As for armored vehicles, when my unit trained up for Iraq in 2007, we had access to a handful of up-armored humvees; a few factory M1114's to drive, and a few battered, ad-hoc armored humvees. We even had a couple ASV's. Wyoming has Guard units training for deployments just like the rest of the states, and I would expect to see some of these vehicles moving around for training, etc.. I don't think there's anything to be worried about. That driver was just doing his job when he told you he couldn't comment.

I was going to say "calm down, they move military stuff all the time" but thought it would add nothing so I didn't post.
About an hour ago 2 Chinook helicopters flew low over my house which is something I'd never seen living here before. Maybe there's more to this that I originally thought, I'll be checking back to see what else others post.

There wasn't anything particularly threatening about these armored humvee's, was there? Were they civilian, some kind of mercenary edition?
