Hmm after rewatching it with sound higher the narrater says "it will stay with him for the rest of his life" so im guessing he is ok -__-

Nice RAW footage, i see the blood on the face then the soldier grabs something (i think a note or medical kit) then the head-cam moves and the guy infront is moving, is that the same guy that got shot? its hard to tell when it cuts out there.

Hope he still alive and being a soldier still if it was him.

@HLANGEL100 Smoke grenades don't give you cover.it's not like call Of duty!they all wer in a plain,so there's not much cover.....anywhere! Smoke is usually for heli e-vacs or drop offs! Airsupport? They said in the video that they didnt know where the taliban wer coming from! An airstrike would be pointless

BEING CAUGHT BY SUPRIZE IS THE BIGGEST WEAKNESS! I WOULD SUGGEST CARRYING SMOKE GRENADES FOR INSTANT COVER & CALLING IN AIR SUPPORT TO TERMINATE THE THREAT! BEFORE THE SMOKES RUN OUT?

@npd307 right on man im sick and tired of seeing a bunch of retards argue over which country, unit, or military branch is better than another. Just about everyone on here are internet heros who dont have the courage, self fortitude, or commitment to even serve in any nations military.

A soldier was shot and people are arguing about what county is better and what tactics they should or should not have used!! I guess this is an easy thing to do on Monday morning with a cup of coffee sitting in your leather high back chair in front of a computer safe in your home. The man was shot protecting the men beside him. The flag which he serves means nothing, they are all there to do the same thing and no one service is better than the other. Honor the men and women for who they are.

@ExecutionerThe the allied forces work under NATO and they give the ROE which every military presence sent here follows. not sure why you would bash the Canadians since they have proven far superior than any allied force in the battlefield. you dont let yourself be exposed even on patrol. you know the risks and you know the danger and these men paid for it and you can also see it clear as day. dont know why your in disbelief

They should be using periscope binoculars to pinpoint the enemy position.

(Continued) As i was saying, different armys have different rules. The British cant just open fire even if they are being shot at, They have to PID the targets. But with your ignorance and your lack of knowledge you wouldn't understand. Clearly you have no military experience at all and your just another troll on the internet, Good day

I just watched the video you told me to, I cant believe you would even compare it to this one, its a completely different scenario. When they get shot at they are directly beside a massive wall, so wasn't hard to establish cover unlike this video where they are lying in a massively open area with no cover. Then the canadians just start firing wildly into the open without even trying to get eyes on the enemy, thats when innocent people start getting shot.
