Skip the first video (intro) and go below, where you can see footage taken by Marines in Zaidon, Iraq.
One Marine was wounded when a RPG hit his leg.
They take no cover. They barely return fire. They don't use any heavy weapons (MGs or the AT-4). They have no plan (other than squat behind a bush and shoot unaimed shots every so often), they have no security. They bunch up in a kill zone...
I thought the same. Who is the guy who stands to shoot ? He helped insurgents direct their RPGs and is responsible for the next hit against one of his fellows..
Meanwhile, I won’t judge. War is hell. Whoeknows how a man can react under fire ?
