Hard.

So I get there, I rock up.

And the first thing that happens is we get told we're not actually going to be doing anything because one squadron SASR just cut off some hands.

Handgate.

Yeah.

That's when I got there during Handgate.

So we were on CSOPs.

So we thought we're actually never going to go out.

I'm never going to get to go outside the wire because that incident occurred.

And that incident I know was an honest mistake and how I know because my roommate was the one who got rid of the hands.

And the SAS operators came in and was like, hey, you're the medic.

Can you please dispose of these respectfully, their body parts from a job where we were told to remove and fingerprint because we didn't have time on target.

And he's like, oh, no dramas, man.

I'll get rid of them for you.

Went up to the burn pit, put all the hands down, put a pallet on them and stirred the hands around like a big old soup kitchen in the fire so that local Afghanis didn't come over and start stealing people's hands because that's what they do.

Like you'll throw batteries in there.

Oh, they'll take it, yeah.

Yeah, they'll run straight over, yeah.

Whatever.

So, um, I'll make stir in the hands.
