I originally questioned the trucks location, not because they are military but because they appear close to the sides of the runway if you have an off runway excursion on landing. This was a factor in the Breezy incident for certain according to the NTSB report:
"The amateur-built ****** Breezy touched down on Runway 36R and "appeared to bounce during the landing roll," the NTSB report states. The Breezy then veered right off the runway and struck armored vehicles parked near the airport perimeter."
I simply raised the question as it seems there was contact with them again after a landing attempt. I did not intend any political statement, I merely wanted to understand how close they are. I should have known better than to ponder out loud on a web forum I guess. Emotions are high after a horrible event. I google mapped the location and I now have a complete understanding of the location of the vehicles with respect to 36R and runway 9, so my questions are answered.
I hope we can return to simply mourning the event and wishing our best for the families and friends of those involved. Sorry for the tangent.
