    There was also the Blackhawk down situation in Somalia. People who are high as a kite can keep advancing even after taking round to the torso. They invented the Mozambique drill for a reason.
    I don't make the rules. I just think them up and write them down.

    "He stepped on a land mine during a patrol and was evacuated to the United States"...

    He fully recovers after doctors say he would never walk again...

    Then goes on to earn the medal of honor for

    "Benavidez heard the radio appeal for help and boarded a helicopter to respond. Armed only with a knife, he jumped from the helicopter carrying a medical bag and rushed to join the trapped team"

    "because of his gallant choice to join voluntarily his comrades who were in critical straits, to expose himself constantly to withering enemy fire, and his refusal to be stopped despite numerous severe wounds, saved the lives of at least eight men." He was believed dead after finally being evacuated and was being zipped up in a body bag when he mustered the last of his strength and spit in the face of a medic, thereby alerting nearby medical personnel that he was still alive."

    "Nearly dead from a total of 37 separate bayonet, bullet and shrapnel wounds received on multiple occasions over the course of the six hour fight between the 13 men and an enemy battalion,[2] Benavidez was evacuated once again to Brooke Army Medical Center, where he eventually recovered."

    I've personally met someone who served as a vietnam tunnel rat -he took most of a full ak mag to the stomach/abdomen/chest at close range and still somehow helped cleared the tunnel and made it to surgery and survived.....he's not someone of an imposing stature or overly intimidating, maybe a little crazy but I doubt he was on heavy drugs or anything.

    I have absolutely no doubt that any person could take a few handgun rounds without stopping.

    Just a disclaimer, that PDF the OP linked, there are dead body coroner pictures. Y'know, just in case someone don't want their kids seeing it.

    [MOD: Thanks for pointing this out. I added a warning to the OP]
