ambush on oct 3rd part 2.MOD

As a can soldier attatched to an american EOD team for this day this is what I experienced in from my lav during Op medusa on oct 3 2006
Taliban began hitting us with rocket and small arms fire and halfway through the video a ammo trailer is hit by a rocket and explodes behind us. The rest of the video speaks for itself as we lay down as much fire as we can to force the taliban to break positions and retreat. 1 or more wounded in this location and 2 killed nearly a dozen severely wounded aprox 600 metres straight up the road where taliban surrounded and tried to wipe out more of our buddies.
you can notice the rear pass door takes a rocket early in the video and can see the hole in the door just when the soldiers pull out their wounded comrade with a horribly wounded leg.
