No rounds penetrated his body armor, and he made it home with no permanent injuries. This happened in Kunar Province, Afghanistan.
READ From the cameraman:
" I got a hit a total of 4 times. My helmet cam died and i made it down the mountain on my own. I was also hit in the side of my helmet and my eye pro was shot off of my face. We were doing overwatch on the village to recon and gather intel. I was point heading down the face of the hill with the LT. when we got hit. the rest of the squad was pinned down by machine gun fire. I didn't start the video until a few mins into the firefight for obvious reasons. I came out into the open to draw fire so my squad could get to safety."
"A round struck the tube by my hand of the 203 grenade launcher which knocked it out of my hands. When I picked the rifle back up it was still functional but the grenade launcher tube had a nice sized 7.62 cal bullet hole in it and was rendered useless. "
This footage is part of an ongoing documentation of the war in Afghanistan.

    I know I'm very late but what the fuck is this comment? Why would a Talibani soldier be butthurt because an American soldier made it back home? Apparently Americans forget that they're not the only human species out there. Those Talibanis also have a soul. They are also somebody's son or parent. They don't want *anybody* to die in a war, be it a Talibani or American soldier. Most of them are just obeying their dictators because they don't have any other options. Do you really think they wanna fight a war? For the sole purpose of killing an American?

Because now his teammates gotta risk there lives to get to him to save his dumbass. Objective should be everyone gets home alive, and hopefully uninjured. Risk your lives for others should be last case scenario. In which I believe there was different ways to neutralize the threats here.

    This is a video they now show in Infantry school on what not to do. As hard as it is to watch, he made every mistake you can possible do in a field of fire. He is alone, he is bounding without cover, he has no awareness of where the fire is coming from, and the worst part is he has absolutely no cover to even bound to. Every time I see this I just think just keep going down, but he stops which is a huge mistake and then he takes cover under a rock no bigger than him and gets hit and in the exact line of fire of where we was getting shot from. The rock to his right was huge and he could have taken cover behind that. Beyond all of that I just pray he came out of this ok.

    He did get him self in a bad spot but he knew what he was signing up for. Even the best trained soldiers make mistakes, the sad truth in war is you normally get one mistake. This happened more to them than ours but regardless....this is what many of our enemy lived right before they got ended by a Apache or a-10 at least that's a quick death . Either way dying is part of the job, they signed over their life when they enlisted and trained to stay alive. I've never been in the military but I've been shot at and have had many times where I was sure I was going to die....it's beyond fear.

    This soldier would have been disciplined in all actuality. He didnt follow procedure. When you recieve blanket machine gun fire and the position is unknown, your first goal is to find cover. After finding cover, attempt a request for indirect fire; howitzers, mortars,rpg,air support, or whatever it takes. Once you have a decent idea of the enemies position, the squad should split and perform a flanking maneuver. If this soldier was trying to draw fire, he would be practicing the "3 second" rule, "now they see me, now they dont". He put his squad in danger and is damn lucky he wasnt killed. In all actuality, the smart chouce would have been to move 5 feet up the hill and hid behind cover with the REST OF HIS SQUAD!

    Gled ShadowBroker It's hard to tell where fire is coming from sometimes, especially when you're caught in the open. You don't have time to look for it, the normal reaction is to put rounds in the most reasonable place. The guy was completely exposed and probably thought going lower would give him a better position. He started taking direct fire, as in rounds at his feet, which changed his mind. They had a good bead on him from that point, probably because he was moving, which gives away position. He likely tried going back up because there was really nowhere else to go and he made it to cover, just not in time. He was scared, but he kept moving.

    For those of you who don't know why he run down and expose himself from these fire. Looks at the video description and the beginning of the video and you will know. And if you still don't understand why he does what he did. Let me explain it to you. In the beginning, there were a Taliban MG pinning down his unit (You can hear the burst from the machine gun), the guy who we saw being shot (THE guy) was on point with his CO, and the MG pin down his squad. Standard practice on being ambush is that you go out of the cross fire and sweep back (or flank) the ambush, that is what he is doing, if he is on point, which mean he is highly likely past the cross fire zone (as he said It was pinning down his squad) which mean he need to re-engage the target. So what he does is basically hit the MG from the side. So, either the MG would have to target him and change the whole orientation (Which has happened in this case) and the guys trapped in the cross fire and move to safety. Or the ambush keep pinning the squad down and he flank/sweep and destroy the ambush. He is not dumb or whatever, this is just how you counter an ambush, but he does have balls doing it alone..

    Can I ask a question? I'm trying to understand his tactics. My thinking is that if he is trying to flank the machine gunner, should he not do it from behind cover? I mean he is going down into a valley where he is exposed to enemy fire, where the enemy has the higher ground relative to him and he has no buddy with him. Surely he would just go round to the enemy's side(i.e. flank) with cover being provided from rocks etc from higher ground as opposed to going down the slope where there is no cover from enemy fire?

    @@sethrauldatta2908 I cannot comment on the whole situation, I was not there, I can only try to understand his action. But I do know two things. 1.) From the direction of his fire, the enemy should be between the road and the small ridge there in front of the mountain range. (I thought the enemy was in the compound but you can see he is not shooting in that direction) Which mean he most likely have to cross the valley (Between him and the road) if he try to make a sweep. 2.) When you are in an ambush, the worst position you would be in is when you silhouetted against the sky, which mean you are completely exposed to enemy fires, now, I am not sure where the solider was with respect to the mountain he is on as he did not look back and is not captured on camera.) but it is most likely he is in front of the mountain or at least at the top. So, if he move back behind the mountain, he would have to silhouetted against the sky and that is not where you want to go or what you want to do in an ambush, you want to stay hidden against the terrain. He is going across the flank of the enemy, you can see at the beginning of the video, he walk forward and turn left to fire his weapon, and you can clearly hear the enemy MG is shooting at his left. But then at around 1 minute mark, you see first the enemy small arms are shooting his way and followed by the enemy MG, the guy still walking perpendicularly to the road (enemy fire), you can see he walks, and then looks left, and then engage left, which make sense because in his word, he said he was trying to draw enemy off from his platoon by presenting himself as a target. However, I have to say, I wasn't there, that is just my speculation on what he is doing, unless he comes in here and explain to us why he do what he do, we may never know.
