[null and void]

Does anyone remember the ARVN soldier with the mortar round stuck in him that was removed by American doctors in a field hospital?

I remember it as an American soldier who was in the hatch of a tank and got it in the shoulder.

I also heard from someone who was in country that an ARVN soldier with a similar injury was "treated" by Vietnamese doctors who put him in an open field and shot until the round detonated...

Not Red Dwarf related, but was pinged to pass this on to everyone else.
