Is he in 173rd? I was in Afghanistan with them last rotation about 2 years ago, I am now on ground in Iraq, and we are dealing with the same stuff. I do hope he and his team get better, always sucks to hear of these things. If he's 173rd PM me his name, so I can see if I know him. I too had a scare the day after Christmas a mortar landed 25-50 yards from where I was standing and then on New Years Eve, we were rocketted and then mortared.
