I've never been blown up before. But I did have the shit shot out of my boat once on a drug bust mission. Man, was that scary. I'm just glad my gunner reacted when he did and how he did. We managed to complete with no casualties or injuries. _________________ BonBon Spirits and Sidearms

Just to jump in, IRL I did 4.5 years in the Royal Canadian Air Force (I know it's not technically called that nowadays, but I like how it sounds). I was posted to NDHQ for pretty much my entire term so I didn't see much outside of the office, sadly. _________________ http://harmlesslion.com |

Well, we do hope to hear from you from time to time when you get the chance to talk. There were a few I'm sure would have taken your hand to the ball. _________________ The suspense is killing me. I hope it will last. |

No offense to you sexymanz but maybe you should keep such stories to another topic. Accidental firework injury stories while entertaining and for the most part quite funny seem out of place when used in the same context as a massive daisey chained ied that ripped the front end off my truck killed two friends and had me climbing out of the turret peeling my gloves of to keep them from melting to my skin.
I know you meant no offense and honestly there was none taken but maybe you should leave this post on topic. |

I did'nt want to say anything, since it did'nt seem appropriate coming from me, but I have to agree with Bestile1. _________________ Silentium est aurum |

Eh no harm done sexymanz just be careful next time. As for you Bestile I'm sorry about your friends. Lost a fellow soldier over there too. It always hard losing a friend to war. I'm glad you made it out alright. _________________ I am what I am and proud to be who I am.

It may not mean as much coming from someone who never has and never will serve in the military but, as someone who knows what it is and what it's like to lose a friend, you have my sympathies as well. _________________ Silentium est aurum |

Well, I suppose my time in service means almost as much as being a civilian for all I got to do. Was in the U.S. Navy for about a year and a half before being discharged for chronic depression, I had a medical officer pretty much spell out that I was going to put a 9mm in my mouth and pull the trigger if I ever went to sea. At the time, I thought he was being a dick, but after hearing some tales from a friend who is still deployed, I have my reasons to suspect he was right. But all that was for my time training for submarine duty. During which time I ended up meeting someone online who has now come to be my wife. This was all rather recent, too. Got discharged in late July after spending about a month and a half over at Great Mistakes (nickname for a training command) |
