First casualty of the day. MP PFC at a checkpoint in Sadr City. Headshot, center helmet, 7.62.
Resulting injury was the graze you see in the final photo where I am parting his hair.

I called the Chaplain prior to his arrival, not knowing if his brain housing group had been compromised.....

Chap to MP:
My GOODNESS! How are you doing after this???

MP:
Chaplain! I am one LUCKY MOTHERFUCKER! That is how I'm doin!!!

It didn't stop it - but it re-routed it well enough.
Is that a typo in the date or are we back in Sadr City?
