Actual footage of a person being shot at close range.


Note! This is for the guys only, the girls probably will not want to see this!


Read the below to prepare you for the actual combat footage.


Seeing folks actually pulling the trigger on another human may not be your cup of tea.


War can be a brutal event. We tend to sit back in our living rooms, and view the barrage of information that comes across our television. We can easily become desensitized to the real gravity and danger of the battle front. Lives may be ended or altered forever during the heat of battle.


When I first saw this photo, my heart was instantly brought face to face with "cold" reality. Yet at the same time, it made me realize that like any soldier, I'm just a guy, too. This moment of conflict, on some distant shore, truly captures the results of what can happen when an enemy is totally exposed.

I put the footage below the fold to avoid shocking the sensative.

Yes, war is a brutal business. I'm thankfull that we still have enough brave and honorable souls willing to risk all for our protection.
