I saw his last moments, he was screaming for his mother, said he tasted aluminum, to please save him, to not let him die. I had no idea a human being could sound like that, but I guess when your missing your legs and ***** anything less would not seem real. It was his body-spasms after he gave up the ghost that I'll never forget. FIDO.

FIDO (A Memory from Helmand Province)

FIDO is an Army Acronym which means **** It, Drive On*.
