when I was in the Marines
I was on an operation called purple star it was with the british
we were camped for the night I was asleep on the turret of my M1A1 Tank
I was awaken to a cobra flying low over the trees
he was doing a tactical clearing for a troop transport that was about to come in and
as he came around he collided with the troop transport that was carrying 14 troops in the back the cobra sliced it in half causing a huge explosion above us
for the next 24 hours we put out the fires and searched the swamp for bodies
the worst part was we were in swamp with gators and they like
dead raw meat
we had to work fast to find all the bodies
only the co pilot and pilot lived on the cobra
he was saved by the armour seat he was strapped into
crazy stuff Ill never forget
