Isn't that the Jarhead that raided a Fallujah home and fended off attacks for about an hour after shot several times. He said the one that went through both butt cheeks "smarted a little".

The EOD detachment from Ft Knox shares a parking lot with us, so we get to know them. They all left a few weeks back for their third deployment to Iraq.

LOL good story and excellent picture. I'm going to forward it to a good friend of mine serving in Afghanastan right now. I'm sure he will like it. Oh....Sgt. Burghardt has some nice legs.

I am humbled, blessed, and greatful to live in a country served and defended by men like Gunny Burghardt.

Thank you. You said it better than I could have.
