He’ll have to tell a different story for his grandkids cause they’ll never believe, “Yeah I remember the time I was shot in the chest with a missle.”

Not his time to go, obviously.
Gotta love the fact that he finished his assigned mission with minimal delay.

Picture this: a bunch of old (hopefully) men sitting in a pub. One says to the other, “that’s nothing . . . I had a RPG bounce off my chest in the ‘stan.” The others respond as one, “yeah, right.”

Good grief - an RPG bounces off the guy’s chest? His mates aren’t gonna give him a hard time over that one. Nosirree... ;-)

Just minor wounds to the arm? Something looks pretty nasty on his back.

I hope he lived and is telling his buddies about these supermen that eat RPG’s.

If you look at that carefully, it’s just the fibres of his jacket soaked in blood. It looked like an open wound at first!
He’s the one I’d ask to pick Lotto numbers!

An RPG bounced off his chest. Pure BS.

I thought the Brits were famous for a stiff upper LIP.
What are they feeding this guy, depleted uranium?
Geeze!

“Yes, yes, had a bit of a go with one of those RPG thingies. Bounced off and kept on going, don’t you know. A bit shaken up I was, but it’s all in a day’s work. Can’t let these sorts of things be a bother, don’t you agree?”
(Anyway, Thank G-d this man is alive!)
