That went to later rotations to Al-Asad Air Base.

And we went into there in the dead of the night and we were literally like in shipping containers surrounded by ISIS on this base, man.

It was fucking surreal.

Like I woke up the first morning that the sun came up and we just copped like 14 Grad rockets and just like I felt like a Jew in Tel Aviv right now just fucking looking up in the sky.

Oh, no.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

Yeah, yeah.

There's no protection.

You literally – it wasn't even a shipping container.

You know the Chews?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They were the white houses that we live in and me and the other SIG are in the same room and the – like –

the fucking bombs are landing all around the camp like and it's got a 30 meter kill radius and we're just looking at each other like there's nowhere to go there's no bomb shelters no we just look at each other from our sleeping bags like trying not to be trying not to show like that oh that was oh that was close and i'm just put my sleeping bag over my head and like my hands over my face so like shrapnel at least hit me in the arms or whatever and you do honestly just waiting for it to stop

And then like you had to go and all the boys linked up like, hey, you're alive.

Yep, sweet.

All right, back to bed.

And they would do that every morning.

And then one morning, the SIG again, my mate, he's on picket.

He's up on the, there's like a single picket point.

How big is this base?
