what freaks me out more is some people just look over their shoulder and don't move. they stay in formation. guess that is why they hold clarinets instead of rifles.

Not so Jeep. When in formation like that the platoon leader would be the one to step out of formation. When we graduated basic, we had to stand in formation for almost an hour, and we were briefed that if anybody passed out it was the element leader's job to go get him, and not break formation. Silly? Yes. But they were just doing what they were told.

when someone swoops into your formation and you have multiple people injured one person to get all of them is crazy. guess that is why i am not good at taking orders. after seeing multiple people bounce and multiple people get hit there is a big diff than passing out.
but i understand where your coming from.
