also... i really want to know what that kid was saying about working with IED's... Im pretty sure afghans dont have their own counter IED organizations... so making them or emplacing them maybe? hopefully that kid was detained after all this...
i dont think anybody posting on here knows how incredibly unreliable and shitty an RPG7 is... Stop a tank? most likely not... It's more of an anti-personnel weapon... thus it being called a grenade... it spits ball bearings and shrapnel everywhere upon impact or self destructs when it reaches 1000 meters. a LOTTTT of these rockets are duds too... They'll hit things and glance off them a lot. RPG9 is the only one made for taking on armor and are extremely rare in afghanistan.
@azmagaref IVE HEARD A STORY WERE AN RPG GLANCED OFF SOMEBODY'S HEAD. its possible. of course not a strait on hit, but if just the edge nicks you it wont go off. in most cases it would still most likely kill you.
WOW, that sucks. Thanks to all our soldiers and the reporters who bring their stories home so that we all can further understand what they go through on a day to day bases.
