ray the soyjrat (nprofile…vpvm) i almost bit the bullet twice just in boot camp and combat school
In boot camp, we were at the grenade range. First you practice with 10 dummy grenades and you get into a throwing position and get told when to throw. Afterwards you go to the live grenade range where you just get told when to throw and you duck. At the live grenade range it’s 4 people at a time, 2 on either side. I threw my grenade and ducked. The person to my right took out the safeties and stayed in the throwing position, waiting to be told to throw. However he also wasn’t holding the safety lever. Luckily a drill instructor was right behind him and yelled at him to fucking throw it and the instruction pushed him down after. His grenade popped right past the barrier and hot shrapnel fall on us.
The second time was in combat school when we were firing M203 grenade launchers. When using the M203 you have another attachment for the front sight. We were firing at some destroyed tanks in the distance. The guy to my right was using his sights wrong and wasn’t paying attention to where his barrel was pointing and had it pointed straight down in front of us. Thankfully a combat instructor was walking behind us before he fired and told him how to use it
