I have absolutely no room to judge here..
However I just pulled this up in front of a group of 18E and Fs and there was MUCH hoopla and yelling at the screen.. Common decency prevents me from sharing some of the comments.![]()
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

Cool that he posted up video. I've never been shot at, so I don't know how I'd react, but that looks pretty intense. Glad our boys are wearing armor over there; it definitely saved his life. I can't imagine getting cracked in the chest with a 7.62, even wearing plates.
The armchair quarterbacking that is still being posted under that video on youtube by a bunch of damn kids is just sickening. One actually called him a pussy for hiding behind a rock and yelling that he's been hit. Had to stop reading it before my blood pressure got too high.

I seen some Combat on TV.
Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Haw haw haw?..
I will say that the sound of rounds impacting near your pos is about the scariest sound on earth. Like DG said it's hard to imagine living a normal life with massive testicles like his. If you read some of the story on the video, he was hit 4 times and a round impacted his 203... pucker factor of about 12 right there! Glad he survived, Kunar is no freaking joke, that place sucks!![]()

Lots of armchair quarterbacking sometimes....
