**WARNING** This video is very graphic, and depicts men under fire at Operation Red Sand in Bala Murghab, Badghis Province, Afghanistan, April 4, 2011. This audio depicts the actual moment Army Sgt. Jeff Sheppard, Pfc Ben Bradley, Air Force Master Sgt. Kevin Wallace, Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class Ryan Lee, and Navy K9 'Valdo' were wounded by an RPG.
NOTE: What happened to the old rule that you never let a mother see her son in any light other than that which will bring them joy and pride? I can't imagine how these men's relatives feel about hearing them scream in pain calling for a medic and then having that broadcast to the world. I might delete this. I have to chew on it a bit more.
Thanks for posting this story. It was an honor to write and was REALLY AN HONOR to serve among my BMG brothers!
