Beyond the inherent dangers of operating a soft-skinned vehicle in a combat environment, gunners in particular are vulnerable to snipers, IED blasts, and roll-overs due to their exposed position. In response to these problems, the Up-armored Humvee has been developed, which offers protection against most small arms fire, shrapnel and anti-personnel mines.

In Combat With HMMWVs

By David Doyle
There are two basic types of mechanical parking brake systems used on most vehicles with hydraulic service brakes, as well as on many vintage vehicles equipped with air brakes. The first type, shown here, uses a drum or disk on the transmission or the transfer case output. When the brake is applied it locks the drive shaft so the vehicle’s rear wheels can’t turn. This system is used on many common collector military vehicles, including most jeeps, Dodge WCs and M37s, Kaiser M715s, some early model HMMVWs, most deuce-and-a-halfs, five-ton trucks, and also on many larger vehicles and construction or material-handling equipment. This CCKW example uses an external contracting band type brake.

One of the most common reasons a parking brake won’t hold is that the mechanism that applies the brake — the handle or lever in the driver’s compartment, and/or its connecting linkage — is worn-out, broken, or out-of-adjustment.
