The PRT who lived on our base used to drive into the bazaar with their old uparmored HMMWVs because gently caress the national guard right, they were the last to get MRAPs. One day the crew of one truck came home with headaches from the suicide bomber who detonated himself next to their vehicle in the bazaar. All good, but the truck rolled in our gate covered in strips of Afghan manflesh. By month six we had well gone into crazyland. We tossed bits of flesh at each other from the truck. I found a shred of a nose, a vertical strip that included one nostril. I still have the multitool I used to pick it up and chase around my buddy with, like kids in a sprinkler.

ReebTop posted:One suicide (Iorio), a dumb car accident here in the states (Page), three KIA. Two of them, Hrbek and Lindskog, got the Silver Star; Hall was the third, no idea what happened. Hrbek I think actually got two Silver Stars, saved a bunch of other jarheads a week before stepping on an IED in Afghanistan. Lindskog went out with a QRF to be an extra medic for TIC, ended up getting shot above his side plate. Directed treatment and medevac while laying there. Died in the bird, last one to get loaded, refused to be evac'd before any of the other wounded. Iorio? Commo guy, E6 or so, with a New York accent?
