Give desert trouble the boot.

Those old desert enemies--dust and sand--are up to no good again. This time they're getting up close and personal with the hatches on your Stryker.

The two slowly work their way into the cracks and crevices of the latches on the troop, squad leader's and commander's hatches. The latches get stiffer and more difficult to open and close.

Eventually the latches seize up altogether. Not good if you're in the middle of a fight.

Notify your mechanic as soon as you notice the latches are sticking. He'll take the fight to those desert foes by disassembling, cleaning and lubing the latch mechanisms.
