#1 If all the other 50 cal gunners were using as much ammo as this guy did, I wonder just hom many rounds were expended.

12 dead and 20 something wounded. It was always amazed me how few bullets actually hit home in a fire fight. I would have thought that the Iraqi KIA would have been near Mogedishu levels, based on the account.
