well 2 days ago i was shot in the head while doing a patrol in downtown mosul,iraq. we were just walking along and i felt like i got hit in the head with a rock. when i looked up there was smoke pouring out of my head and i could feel the blood running down my head. my reaction was not one of shock or saddness but for some reason anger. i got enraged at the fact that they shot me and i preceded to exact my revenge. after the firefight was over the injury then started to hit me. i began feeling woozy. i was medevaced to the hospital. a few hours later the dug out the 7.62mm tip out of my head and shipped me to a FOB to recover. i am very nervous and scared to go back out there but that is what i need to do. i need to get over this fear before it eats me alive. i also want to thank everyone who has prayed for soldiers over here i think that help. man that shit was close

Hey man Did you keep the bullet? You know if you carry it with you, you won't get hit in future. I got scared to go out after I got stabbed in a local town All I can say is get back out there as soon as you're able and remember it's the fear that keeps you alive
