Imagine your daily routine being interrupted. That’s exactly what happened to Private Duffy when a couple of hajjis in a taxi sped by them busting through the barricade. They quickly went into the humvee racing after them. They raced passed the bootleg video guy and saw the taxi stop in an ally. The hajjis jumped out and ran inside a house across the street. Private Duffy and his comrade Justin quickly ran into another house finding a window were they ripped down the curtains and had a clear view across the street. Justin had a clear shot and took it he went down like a ton of bricks.

Little did they now a few seconds later they were running towards the humvee and boom. An RPG (Rocket Propelling Grenade) lands only 20 feet fromPrivate Duffy. He was knocked out by the impact of the missile and Justin had to throw him over his shoulder and carry him to the humvee.
