A fast paced, unconventional firefight, throwing doctrine out the window. 16 days after the death of Osama Bin Laden we were on a mounted patrol and ran into 6 Taliban fighters. We ended up killing 4 of them. The .50 cal broke over the rough terrain. We had done our PCC's & PCI's prior, along with a test fire. Murphys law took effect that day.
