Yep. I've seen shit you wouldn't believe if you saw it in a movie. The weirdest shit always seemed to take place.
So for example; when I was in Somalia back in the late 90s one of our AAVs engine started acting up and we had no fucking time or ability to stop and fix it right then and there. So we got the chains out and started towing the crippled AAV to our rally point. The fucking crew started fixing the engine while we were driving down the road. I wasn't in the AAV in tow, I was in the one pulling this shit so all I know is what the guys told me. They had the mechanic hanging under the AAV fixing what ever end broke. He tied his tools to his belt in case he dropped one he wouldn't lose it. No shit 20 or 30 minutes later they fired it up and unhooked our shit and took the fuck back off.
Shit like that was what made it worth it really. Seeing bad ass fucking team work together to over come some serious obstacles. That's the shit that my dick hard with pride.
