Soldiers at Fort McCoy for training operate an armored Humvee on Jan. 23, 2019, in the snow on the cantonment area at Fort McCoy, Wis. The High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV or Humvee) is a family of light, four-wheel drive, military trucks and utility vehicles produced by AM General. It has largely supplanted the roles previously performed by the original jeep, and others such as the M151 jeep, the M561 Gama Goat, and other light trucks. Primarily used by the United States military, it is also used by numerous other countries and organizations and even in civilian adaptations. The Humvee has had widespread use in the Middle East for the Gulf War of 1991, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and other areas. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T.
