I had a good shipmate twist his ankle doing self PT when he was on an IA to Iraq and they tried to give it to him but he refused.

I had a commander once who got a scratch on her forehead from her Kevlar after an IED. Her Purple Heart was awarded the next day while her gunners, who got shrapnel in his rear-end, and her drivers(burns to the face and arms) took almost 3 weeks to get approved. O did I mention she was sleeping when they hit the IED

LOL, a lot already have just in another thread. We are talking about people who run into t-walls running from a mortar round that landed no where near them, or hitting there head on the stock of their weapons for sleeping on it when an IED went off down the road.
