Alright its been a day or two since it happen and its not a mission anymore. We had the pic witch is were we gave Ar Ramadi back to Iraq and we are only here for base defense. Well and hour before the sarimony 2 mortars and 1 rocket hit the base. One of the mortars did no explode and it landed 50 meters from my building I was working out of. It just hit another building, taking a chuck of the building off.
They always told me that you can here one in coming. Well during Basic and zhit they always simulated the sound of one coming in and it lasted like 15 seconds. Well In real life you only hear it for like 3 seconds. There is no time to get done, and by the time you know what it is then its to late.
The one that did explode landed about 300 meters away and it sounded crazy.
