Some of the ‘hell-house” sims at 29 Palms now use Marines who have lost their limbs in combat action. They sim out Marines who have had their arms or legs blown off and then have cosmetic injuries (including spurting blood), yell and raise all kinds of ruckus to scare and prepare our Marines for the worst case scenarios. They may not be on the front lines, but those Marines are STILL saving lives.

And probably really good therapy to see the bros in action, see the emotion, working like mad dogs to save their lives.
