A very emotional, personal recording of a US Marine Rifle squad under mortar fire. Recorded during the attack from inside a very small room while they are packed together with barely any real cover, presumably the only shelter while on patrol. One of the Marines seems to be scared out of his wits, practically delirious, while another Marine prays. The blast from the mortar can be seen inside the room. Intense, emotional video.

    I wanna see you laying there, under a mortar attack. What you fail to realize is, these men have seen other men killed. Stop trying to be an internet tough guy and, in the famous words of Hank Hill "Shut the hell up."

    I've deployed four times and am an E-5. I've engaged enemy targets lobbing mortar shells. The worst part about this video is this insurgent doesn't know exactly where they are. Because if he did, somebody would seriously be fucked up. Like we always say: "Get the fuck out of the killzone and kill this bastard."

  • @shoffman11b Good luck engaging to indirect fire.

  • Rofl "Quit pushing me from underneath the table! I haven't finished eating my Subway Sandwich! WHY oh WHY can't we be back on that ship hangin out with those Sailors?! That was SUCH a good life chillin in the sun with our martinis!" Give me a fuckin break, you wouldn't make it in the Army punks.

  • @hyarke

    Definitely isn't a real Soldier! Real Soldiers don't cower down like this, we react to contact, engage, and DESTROY our enemy. This is your "few and proud."

  • Sup 'murika, u mad cunt?

  • Easy to be brave on the internet, but in these high paranoia situations with people getting limbs blown off and their skin melted from mortar fire it becomes a real threat

  • @MeierTV

    Its a secure building. You don't have to defend these pussies because you come from the same country

  • @MeierTV >other video

    >brits are clearly out in the open

    >they don't give a fuck.
