Before dawn on August 22, 2007, nearly eighty Taliban tried to overrun the forward operating base called Ranch House, in Nuristan Province, Afghanistan.

Both of my eardrums were ruptured and had to be reconstructed. I have some shrapnel up and down the right side of my body. It&#8217;s not life threatening. My body, the doctor tells me, will eventually push the shrapnel to the surface, and then it can be surgically removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m told a six-millimeter fragment from an RPG is just chilling somewhere on the right side of my brain, right next to my motor movements&#8211;which explains why I&#8217;m having a hard time moving the left side of my body. I&#8217;m no longer in control of my body; it&#8217;s in control of me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u6709\u4f4d\u91ab\u751f\u4f86\u544a\u8a34\u6211\u53d7\u4e86\u54ea\u4e9b\u50b7\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u6211\u7684\u53f3\u773c\u5168\u76f2\u3002\u5de6\u53f3\u5169\u908a\u7684\u8033\u819c\u90fd\u7834\u88c2\u4e86\uff0c\u5fc5\u9808\u91cd\u5efa\u3002\u6211\u7684\u53f3\u534a\u908a\u8eab\u9ad4\u7684\u4e0a\u4e0a\u4e0b\u4e0b\u9084\u6709\u5f48\u7247\u5728\u88cf\u9762\uff0c\u4f46\u90a3\u4e26\u4e0d\u6703\u81f4\u547d\uff0c\u6211\u7684\u91ab\u751f\u544a\u8a34\u6211\uff0c\u8eab\u9ad4\u5728\u65b0\u9673\u4ee3\u8b1d\u7684\u904e\u7a0b\u4e2d\u6703\u628a\u5b83\u5011\u63a8\u51fa\u5230\u8868\u9762\uff0c\u90a3\u9ebc\u5c31\u53ef\u4ee5\u7528\u5916\u79d1\u624b\u8853\u628a\u5b83\u5011\u53d6\u51fa\u4f86\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u91ab\u751f\u544a\u8a34\u6211\uff0c\u5728\u6211\u7684\u53f3\u8166\u6709\u4e00\u584a6\u91d0\u7c73\u7684\u706b\u7bad\u63a8\u9032\u69b4\u5f48(RPG, Rocket-propelled grenade)\u788e\u7247\uff0c\u4ee4\u4eba\u4e0d\u5bd2\u800c\u6144\uff0c\u5c31\u5728\u5927\u8166\u7684\u52d5\u4f5c\u63a7\u5236\u5340\u65c1\uff0c\u9019\u4e5f\u662f\u70ba\u4ec0\u9ebc\u6211\u6703\u611f\u5230\u90a3\u9ebc\u56f0\u96e3\u79fb\u52d5\u6211\u5de6\u908a\u7684\u8eab\u9ad4\u4e86\u3002\u6211\u5df2\u7d93\u7121\u6cd5\u5b8c\u5168\u63a7\u5236\u81ea\u5df1\u7684\u8eab\u9ad4\uff0c\u800c\u662f\u88ab\u90a3\u500b\u788e\u7247\u6240\u63a7\u5236\u4e86\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get that control back, I\u2019m going to fight like hell\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to go back to Afghanistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve got to get back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u70ba\u4e86\u628a\u90a3\u500b\u63a7\u5236\u611f\u627e\u56de\u4f86\uff0c\u6211\u5fc5\u9808\u62fc\u6b7b\u547d\u7684\u53bb\u52aa\u529b\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u6211\u60f3\u8981\u56de\u5230\u963f\u5bcc\u6c57\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u6211\u5fc5\u9808\u628a\u8eab\u9ad4\u7684\u63a7\u5236\u6b0a\u62ff\u56de\u4f86\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*\uff1aJames Patterson &amp; Matt Eversmann, \u201cWalk in my combat boots,\u201d 2021, Little, Brown and Company, Hachette Book Group<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2023\/8\/29 Walk in my combat boots Damakey<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u300aWalk in my combat boots\u300b\u9019\u672c\u66f8\u662f\u9a5a&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36637","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-3"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36637","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=36637"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36637\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36639,"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36637\/revisions\/36639"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=36637"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=36637"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/damakey.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=36637"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
