I thought the same thing when I saw an article on some "motorcycle
troops"
being trained to drop their bikes and use them for cover. The article
did
point out that this was a last resort thing and that they were to drop
the
bike so the tires and engine where toward the enemy. The picture had
three
in a semi circle with the forth was behind them kneeling. Odd to see
"dirtbikes" being used as hasty cover but there they where.
