This is a picture of a Marines interceptor vest of flack jacket. He took shrap metal from
the IED (Improvised Explosion Device). The Hummev to the right is some of the damage that
took place. The shrap metal hit him in the neck. The damage looked really bad but with
correct medical attantion, all he has now is a nasty scar as a reminder of what can go
wrong.
There was another marine that was injured in the explosion. He wasn't as lucky, he lost his left leg. The Marine was in such shock that he didn't even reallize that his leg was just hanging on by a peace of skin. He just thought that he couldn't move it around. |
This is a picture of the outside damage to the hummve. The IED some how missed the tire
completly and went strate through the back tailgate. I was almost on that hummve, we were
doing a releave in place with Fox Co. So there driver kicked me out to learn the roads.
It is SOP (standered Operating Precedures) to send out a convoy after being rocket attacked. So when they went out the hages set up a trap for the hummves and luckly no one was killed. Everyday it is a battle to survie in Afganistan and Iraq. |
