I remember being medevac'ed to a nearby DEPMEDS.
I asked about the sniper. They said she was in serious condition,
being taken to Kabul.

The medics wanted to airlift me out too, but I refused.
There was still mopping up to do here. I wasn't hurt, just temporarily out of it.
I told them I'd be fine,
once I got some sleep....
|
Problem was, I couldn't fall asleep. Every time I lay down and shut my eyes...
just as I was about to drift off into merciful slumber...
|
I'd be startled awake by a nightmare....
By the vision... of a terrifying face...
