Post 8, December-

"It was a hot summer day and the sun was starting to come down when we were walking in a wedge formation through the city, exfilling back to the FOB. My teammates and I were exhausted and dripping sweat but none the less we were focused and alert.

The city was quiet, unusually quiet.

Suddenly from behind a dumpster enclosure popped up an insurgent with a red Haji-wrap over his face and an AK47. “Bratttttttttttttttt!” His AK sprayed at us. We knelt down on the hot pavement and returned fire. But, he ducked back behind the wall first."
