    Scariest military training accident you've heard of?

     



    A F-16 used these guy's suburban for target practice and they lived.....

    They definitely needed new underwear after that.

    The scariest military incident that I ever got involved with involved 3 bottles of really cheap wine and one of the indian girls fron the reserve just outside River airbase in Manitoba about 45 year ago---but it is still covered under Canadian Official Secrets act and I can't say any more about it----

    lets post a few of those on the mexican border. I don't know about you, but if I saw a blown up suburban every 100 yards or so, I'd hessitate to cross illegally.

    Element of danger is always there in combat unit/military training cause you are handling live ammo. We should not take for granted that safety is always there unless you are doing research as a scientist in some labs.
