Original caption reads:

"CAMP TAQADDUM, Iraq (Jan. 7, 2006) – An RG-31 Cougar rests on its front axel after an improvised explosive device detonated under the vehicle here Jan. 6. The IED detonated directly under the vehicle; however, because the vehicle was an RG-31, the blast was pushed outward instead of directly straight up due to the unique “V” –shaped undercarriage. Of the five service members in the vehicle, two received concussions and two others received minor burns.
