    Dude. I was an HM for 20 years. Almost 10 of those with the Grunts. Show me something that might have actually hurt.

    The middle finger on my right hand went through the turbo on a Detroit Diesel. Smelled like Burger King in there.
    Remember hearing guys who thought they knew about hurt saying
    If you ever get hurt really good, it doesn’t hurt right then.
    Either getting a bone yanked out of a finger and the next one skinned to the bone doesn’t count or those guys didn’t know WTF they were talking about.

    Man, that does look painful. Hope that heals well and quickly. Not your trigger finger is it ?

    Damn, bet that caused a major cursing outburst. Looks like it’s healing well. Did they put a finger splint on it to keep from bumping it into stuff or did you ditch it already?
