The U.S. Army is offering a $10,000 reward for information that leads to the return of several stolen Humvee doors. Investigators at Fort Liberty, one of the biggest military bases on the East Coast, are trying to figure out what caused this strange crime spree. Motor pools from the 50th Signal Battalion, the 188th Brigade Support Battalion, and the XVIII Airborne Corps were said to be missing the doors.
The doors that were stolen were from unarmored Humvees, which are one of the military's least-liked vehicles. Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID) officials admitted that the reward, which was first announced in October, was real and said that the investigation is still going on.
Some things about the theft are still not clear, like how many doors were stolen, when they were stolen, and whether more have gone missing since the reward was revealed. The theft has gotten a lot of attention as a strange misdemeanor spree, making people wonder why the thieves are going after doors from cars that aren't armored.
A famous military satire page called U.S. Army WTF Moments shared the CID reward notice on social media, which made the mystery even bigger. The theft affects several car pools in Fort Liberty and makes people wonder about the safety measures and how so many doors could have been taken without being seen.
The Army thinks that the big reward will get someone to come forward with information while CID looks into it. For now, the question still stands: why would someone go to such lengths to get doors from Humvees, a vehicle that is often attacked for not being very useful? The answer might lie in finding the person who did this strange heist.
