LOL!
If you were at TG you would've been kicked for suicide tactics.
But well, if you can't kill it, fight dirty or it will kill ya.
Another oh **** moment: When my squad in Fallujah West actually ran out of ammo. Literally. All the shots had been fired, most grenades had been tossed. All kits disappeared in the surroundings. We used all ammo bags available, living and dead people.
APC won't give us ammo ("too hot" - my squad cleared the area before the last "click" was heard).
What we did? Moved towards a supply truck (which was right next to the mosque). For some reason, we had 0 resistance from point. When we reached the supply crate, (we were blessed the whole round) the truck had SUPPLIES!!! WE ALL CELEBRATE!!
As we drop a crate, 14 soldiers (6 of my squad and other 8 random people) started feeding off from that very own supply crate... we were so happy. We cheered. We screamed. We smiled.
10 seconds after the supply crate is dropped, guess what.
KABUM!!!!!!!
Actually not, that was a joke (funny eh?)
Well, 10 seconds after we dropped the supply crate and 14 people around it, we almost had a heart attack when that supply crate full of goodies blew up in front of us. Well, guess that supply crate didn't have anything more than a couple of mags for 14 lead-thirsty guys!
Can't remember what happened later. But it was the first - and only 'til present - that my squad actually ran out of ammo. Literally.
"Oh ****" was in our minds and hearts the whole bloody time.
BLACK- Our aprox. path.
RED- firefights
ORANGE- FOB (which was raped 3 times, lost our supply crates

)
BLUE- Officially, 60%+ of the squad had no ammo. All ammo bags expended. Hideout taken out north of that faithful moment.
Yello- Blessed, we survived the whole way.
Brown (?)- Supply truck!
That was like a month ago or so, so I don't remember everything exactly, but that's roughly a good aproximation.
