special day

[cbrn2]

Well today is a very speical day, because today is the day i got blow up by a IED (improvised explosive device) for the very first time. Thank God i was inside a stryker or it would have killed me.

[tom the pit leader]

god damn. That's not something you read everyday.

I take it you're not hurt badly, because otherwise you wouldn't be posting. Thank god for armored vehicles.

Not to pry, but what was it like, being inside a stryker when it got hit?

[cbrn2]

not a problem, well the VERY first thing is the noise when it go's off. I can't hardly tell u what it sounds like. The next thing is being throw to the armored wall hard, it feels like somebody just push u with all their might.

[killer04]

did this happen today or is this like the anniversary of it happening?

[cbrn2]

its the anniversary of when it happens. Trust me, when its your first time you will never forget the date. If I was out and walking when it happen then i would not be here talking to u fine people.

[Lord Maverick]

[Siaon]

I'm glad you were okay after that.

I've heard such horrific stories about IEDs.

You sir and many others who are willing to put life and limb on the line for liberty and democracy are heroes in my book. Keep fighting for the right cause and arrive home safe
