Well I got my purple heart. I was blown up a couple days ago by a 300 pound IED. I got a Class 3 TBI, a mild concussion, and soft tissue damage in my knee and back. Im ok but just hurting like fucking crazy. My whole body is fucking sore. It sucks

Wow. To be honest, I expected your ass to come back as it left. It's good to see you're still about, better you get the Purple Heart than someone else getting a folded flag at your funeral. How was it that you found a 300lb IED?

The hard way.
Glad to hear you are alright man. What happens now do you get sent back or is it not that bad?

The hard way.
No shit sherlock. I'm curious as to the story behind it. A 300lb IED isn't exactly something someone would toss in a backpack, it would take a pretty decent camel to move that S.O.B. around. I'm guessing maybe a car or something buried? How close were you when it went off Gnar?

It was buried and my truck ran it over, causing it to detonate. It exploded right under my truck. Ill post up pics when i get my camera back. It threw me half way out of the turret. The truck is completly fucked up. I may end up having to do physical therapy for my back tho. But as of now im staying in country.
