CNN's Warrior One
CNN'S WARRIOR ONE IS A LEAN MEAN HOT ROD. THE SUPPED UP HUMMER WAS NOT ALWAYS TRICKED OUT.
CNN BOUGHT THE '93 HUMMER H1 IN KUWAIT AND USED IT TO COVER THE IRAQ WAR.
LAST OCTOBER, CHIP FOOSE, FROM TLC'S SHOW OVERHAULIN' ,TRANSFORMED WARRIOR ONE INTO A MOBILE TRIBUTE TO THE MILITARY AND THE JOURNALIST WHO COVER THEM.
"I had tears in my eyes just like he(Foose) did when he got done with it. To see the expression of all the people and the veterans that see this at the end of the show. Outstanding" SAYS
GERALD SCHNEIDER, A RETIRED FT CAMPBELL SOLDIER. HE WATCHES OVERHAULIN' ON TELEVISION BUT GOT A CHANCE TO SEE WARRIOR ONE IN PERSON WHILE IT WAS ONE DISPLAY IN FRONT OF THE FISHER HOUSE AT FT. CAMPBELL.
"I'm really grateful to Chip Foose and his crew and to CNN, this is awesome" said Schneider.
THE TRICKED OUT WARRIOR ONE WILL BE AUCTIONED OFF ON JANUARY 20TH BY BARRETT JACKSON AUCTION HOUSE. SCHNEIDER THINKS THE HUMMER WILL SELL FOR AT LEAST A MILLION DOLLARS.
"If I had it I would by it for a million" SAYS SCHNEIDER WITH A CHUCKLE.
ONE HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE MONEY RAISED BY THE SALE OF WARRIOR ONE WILL BE GIVEN TO THE FISHER HOUSE FOUNDATION, A GROUP THAT BUILDS COMFORT HOUSES FOR HOSPITALIZED MILITARY PERSONNEL. IT IS ANOTHER WAY THAT CNN AND OVERHAULIN' CAN HELP SUPPORT THE MILITARY.
