I finally finished reading Marcus Lutrell's book, "Lone Survivor". It was interesting and a good read IMO. I couldn't help but be amazed at the hardwork/dedication that every soldier put in day in/out. Thanks to all.
Especially when he spoke about his "stealth" qualification exam. He said he laid there..STILL for 5 HOURS after that shot before attempting to exit!! That's wild and it was only for qualification! I can't even imagine how much longer it would probably be if it was on an actual mission.
So those of you who have been there, done that if you don't mind...is that the norm or did he play it cautiously? How long did you lay there during your qualification and what was your longest time on an actual mission (if you can recall it)? No need to go into details about the mission details and specifics, etc.
