Re: Keep Ya Eyes on the Road!
Kelly, if you don't mind, here are all the high-resolution photos and story from my ogrishforum.com thread entitled, "Eye-Popping Experience with Machine Gun in Iraq": Four high-quality pics contributed by a U.S. Marine deployed in Iraq. Here's his background info on these images: Hello, I figured I would create my first post with a bang. To start off, I am a former U.S. Marine (2004-2008) and I am a combat veteran of the Iraq Campaign. I was deployed to the Al Anbar Province of Iraq in 2005 as part of a unit that performed security patrols, escorts, and various missions that I will not discuss in detail. One day we were performing a vehicle patrol of the area when two Iraqi vehicles came racing toward us at a high rate of speed. After waving, shouting, and firing warning shots, the vehicles did not stop and were presumed to be VBIEDs (vehicle-bourne improvised explosive devices). We opened fire with M16A4s and a 240G 7.62 machine gun. Needless to say, the suicide drivers failed at their mission. One was seriously injured and taken into captivity after being hastily treated for his wounds. The other, which you see here, received bullet wounds to the chest and head. The pressure from the head impact actually caused the left eye to pop-out. If you look closely at the third picture, you can see the holes in the windshield from the kill shots. We were impressed with the outcome. Here's his background info on the fourth pic: E.O.D. was called out and used the robot and confirmed that no explosives were rigged to the vehicles; however, we recovered these rifles from the cars. Don't even try to ask me why these idiots attempted to ram a patrol of four heavily armed HMMWVs thinking they'd be able to achieve something, because your guess is as good as mine. |
