Default Like Red vs. Blue, But Real Life - IRAQ VIDEO

I think its from late last year, but news to me. Just reminds me of the red vs. blue cartoons, "Oh damn, right there. They're gettin pretty close." Or, "Oh ****, they hit the base!"

That was somewhat comical but more scary. I could not imagine hearing that sound of an incoming projectile and having no idea where to go to avoid being hit. I hope they nailed those Mother F*ckers who were doing the shelling.

From the sounds...it seemed like motars. However, I can't imagine that those things could cover that distance from the moutains that we were apparently relaliating against?

Actually a 81mm motor can cover quite a distance.... and the return fire from the 105's is something you dont want to be on the receiveing end of...

Looks awful familier... I'm pretty sure that was shot right here where I'm at... I know I've seen the video more than once on some local hard drives. Kinda scary when it happens, but it shouldn't be happening too much more.

Be careful out there, they might stop sucking after a while. Then again we don't usually give them a second chance do we

Wow, this is a surprise. Well the **** is hitting the fan now isn't it, we need to stop dicking around and reinforce what we've got up there in my opinion. What do you think?

Just gives me more respect for all my fraternity brothers that are over there. Thanks for the help fellas. BTW: more vids like this would be great if anyone knows where to find them. Kinda gives us here at home a feel for whats really happening.

Definitely!! Thanks to all our troops!!!

On a side note, my whole family just got back from seeing my younger brother graduate from Parris Island as a Marine. All I have got to say is I am such a whimp! I have MUCH respect for those that made it through that! or any boot camp for that matter

Nice vids
