War Dog (2013)
“You think it’s a laugh to stare at me limping through the park? How old are you? Not much younger than I was when I lost my leg.
Yeah, that’s right. Eighteen years old. My whole life ahead of me. Still think I look funny, hey? Go on, have a good giggle at the man with the plastic foot.
What? You want to know how it happened?
Don’t mess me around. Seriously, are you sure?
Alright then. Let’s sit down on this park bench here. I’m sorry, I’m a little out of breath. It’s tiring going around on thes...e crutches. I was very fit back in my army days. But … well, those days are gone. My name’s Jamie, by the way. Pleased to meet you.
It happened on a hot afternoon. Correction: it happened on a scorching hot afternoon. Every summer’s day in Afghanistan is a scorcher. You sometimes think you’ll never be cool again.
We’d been on patrol since before dawn. Our route had taken us into the Green Zone.
What’s the Green Zone?
Well, in the south of Afghanistan, most of the terrain is desert.MoreLess
