    And that's why I do a pee trip every morning. Hop out of the truck, walk to the back of the trailer, take a look at everything underneath, empty my bladder and walk back up the right side of the truck lookin to see if I can see anything wrong.

    @singlescrewshaker what did you mean by “sissy mirror” the other day? Is it like an accessory mirror that helps with blind side backs?

    I’m assuming he means the training mirrors on the hoods of trucks

    Bad*** story from a Navy Seal that was Iraq

    "In April 2007 US Navy SEAL, Mike Day, along with a number of other Navy SEALS raided a building in Fallujah, Iraq. Day was the point man during the breach. When they breached the door 3 heavily armed enemy insurgents opened fire on Day and the other men at point blank range. Day was hit 27 times, 11 times in his body armor and 16 more times in his surrounding body (both arms, both legs, abdomen, buttocks and scrotum). He lived to tell his story, but shockingly that is not the most amazing part!

    After Day and his team entered the room, Day was shot, the Iraqi scout behind Day was shot in the chest and retreated. The 3rd Iraqi scout behind Day was shot and killed. The fourth SEAL behind him was shot in the neck and went down. As a result of being shot Day dropped his rifle (his rifle was hit by some of the gunfire), but Day kept fighting with his pistol. He killed the first enemy insurgent, but the second one ran out into the hall with a hand grenade with the pin pulled. Day shot and killed him, and he dropped the grenade on the floor right next to day. The blast from the grenade knocked Day unconscious. After regaining consciousness, Day re-engaged the remaining enemy insurgent and killed him. After killing the last insurgent, Day then rescued 6 women and children in the building. And even after all this, it's STILL not the most miraculous part of the story!

    After the firefight was over, even though he was being offered assistance, shot 27 times and being blasted with a hand grenade, Day managed to get to his feet, and walked unassisted to an awaiting helicopter where he collapsed and was flown to safety. Day later said this last act of unimaginable strength and resolve was not an act of sheer bad-assery, but rather because he was afraid if he allowed himself to be assisted it would hurt worse than it already did. So he walked to the helicopter himself!"
