You know, there's like a thousand Iraqis wandering around.
You can barely keep these people.
So I said, don't come out here.
We're going to try to figure this out.
And then within minutes,
what feels like moments, a semi truck crashes through our concertina wire on the Eastern perimeter.
And then of course everybody lights it up.
You know, we've told the V bed, everyone's thinking that's a big ass V bed, you know?
Uh, so we take, this guy gets taken out and now there's Iraqis running all over the place.
You know, they think they're stuck between literally a rock wall and a gunfight.
So they're going ape shit.
And we've got this truck and driver to deal with.
And so now we actually need help.
And not too long after that, Lieutenant Colonel McLaughlin shows up and a couple of dog handlers.
So Lieutenant Colonel Mack comes out with his PSD team to start trying to help us get people organized.
And there's a fucking Lieutenant Colonel out there with a bunch of fives and sixes and fours.
He's a very, very brave man.
And these dog handlers were Marines, and we had done a few joint stuff with those guys.
And they said, hey, do you want us to go get our dog?
And Sergeant Can's dog was sleeping on the hood of my truck.
