It's a shame he can't buy lottery tickets there!

Hell of a story and I'm glad he lived to tell it. Should have shot the SOB that shot him though......

This would be ammo in the "9mm is a weak round" arguement.  I am of course very happy for the soldier to escape serious injury.

But still, it should have done more damage. Maybe it was a squibfire?

Cheap ammo for the insurgents. That man is extremely lucky though and should never go back into a combat zone after this tour is up.
