• The Humvee: Humvees seem to be everywhere in Iraq. But the humvee does not make the list for the same reason that jeep of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam did not, nor did the superb, but little- publicized, three-quarter-ton truck of those wars. The humvee and those other vehicles are trucks, basically a means of transportation rather than a weapon. All of them have, of course, been adapted to function as fighting vehicles, but that use has not resulted in a major change in tactics.
• The Neutron Bomb: The neutron bomb, also called an “enhanced radiation device,” is a nuclear bomb that produces a relatively mild blast but fills a wide area with deadly radiation. Supposedly, it could kill every living thing in a city but leave the buildings largely intact. It has been the subject of horror stories by antiwar activists, who seem to think destruction of life without destruction of property is especially immoral. The neutron bomb, however, has never been built, and its effects are purely theoretical.
