The shot apparently didn't just go through the arm, but traveled up the arm...damn!

god damn. I hate seeing a wounded friendly, but it serves as a reminder for all who havent seen combat, the vids we watch r real, the danger and the bullits r real and the men r real. we can turn off the comp to stop the bullits but when they turn of the camera the bullits still fly. I hope he has had a full and speedy recovery

Damn dude... Hey, you can always get a sleeve tattoo to cover those cool scars up. Looks like he'll be able to continue serving though, should he choose to.
