Personally, I have been shot at on top the Iraqi Government building
in the IZ from the Red Zone. I was setting up and troubleshooting the
Motorola Canopy WiFi system. Just a few 7.62x39 rounds, nothing I
would call heavy fire.
It was because you were setting up the canopy stuff, not related to
being in Iraq. Motorola sure goofed on that abortion.
The only "Heavy Fire" I took was standing on top of one of the
buildings at the FOB trying to trace a cable and the ricochets from
the firing range were landing all over the place. That happens when
30 guys are training with AKs and a T-Wall as the backstop.
I have deployed Asterisk systems in war zones many times, in West
African countries, Iraq, Baltimore and South East DC. I would
certainly seek shelter/defensive position if there was gun play. LOL,
you can wish yourself into a gun fight but you cannot wish yourself out.
It would also be a whole lot easier for someone to physically feed me
so my hands could be free to work in hostile environments, maybe an LN
can bring me a portable toilet and make sure it is fresh, that would
make everything so easy and easy is what we all want.
Heck, I could just set it up at the FOB and then deploy it.
At any rate, I asked the guy to post his success, so I am not sure why
you posted, but thanks. It only takes 10% truth to make a legend.
Thanks,
Steve T
