Harrison,
Is the US armed force so hard up for soldier's that they would deploy a soldier 6 months after major back surgery? I guess so.
This shows how delicate natural discs are and how important it is to take your time with your recovery. Lugging around a M249 machine gun in full body armor not a good idea for us spinies.
If this guy has made medical history then we must be from the stone ages.
