5 Soldiers that make rambo look like a pussy

What should have been an awesome read became an annoying shit storm of poorly written analogies.

This guy sucks at writing.
 
best line:
He encountered a German machine gun crew who pretended they were surrendering, then shot his best buddy. Murphy completely hulked out, killed everyone in the gun nest, then used their weaponry to kill every baddie in a 100-yard radius
 
The sniper seemed like he should have gotten #1! Holy crap. I was :lol: at the guy with the sword and bag pipes.
 
List does not include MSG Benevidez. List fails.

On May 2, 1968, in an outpost near the Cambodian border, Sergeant Benavidez listened to his
short-wave radio as the voice of a terrified American, part of a 12-man patrol that had been
completely surrounded by a North Vietnamese battalion, pleaded to be rescued. Armed with
only a knife, Benavidez immediately jumped into a helicopter and took off with a three man crew
to rescue his trapped comrades.

When they arrived at the fighting, the enemy was too numerous for the helicopter to immediately
evacuate the surrounded soldiers. It had to land seventy-five yards away from their position.
After making the sign of the cross, Sergeant Benavidez jumped out of the helicopter as it hovered
ten feet above the ground, and began to run toward his comrades carrying his knife and a medic bag.
He was shot almost immediately, but he got up and kept moving. An exploding grenade knocked him
down again, shrapnel tearing into his face. He got up and kept moving. Reaching the Americans’
position, he found four men dead, and all the others badly wounded. He armed himself with an enemy
rifle, and began to treat the wounded, distribute ammunition and call in air strikes. He was shot again.
He then ordered the helicopter to come in closer as he dragged the dead and wounded aboard. After
he got all of the wounded aboard, he ran back to retrieve classified documents from the body of a
fallen soldier. He was shot in the stomach, and grenade fragments cut into his back. He got up and
kept moving, and he made it back to the helicopter.

But the pilot was shot and the helicopter crashed. Benavidez pulled the wounded from the wreckage
and radioed for air strikes and another helicopter. He kept fighting until air support arrived. He was
shot several more times before a second helicopter landed. As he was carrying a wounded man toward
it, a North Vietnamese soldier clubbed him with his rifle and stabbed him with a bayonet. Sergeant
Benavidez fought him to death, hand to hand. After rescuing three more of his comrades, he was
finally flown with them to safety.

Bleeding profusely, his intestines spilling from his stomach wounds, and completely immobile, a
doctor thought him to be dead. Roy was placed in a body bag, before the doctor discovered he was
still alive. (When Roy Benavidez spat on his face)

Miraculously, he survived, but spent a year in hospitals recovering from seven serious gunshot
wounds, twenty-eight shrapnel wounds, and bayonet wounds in both arms.
 
Benevidez was pretty fucking hardcore, but he was there to get his buddies out. The guys on the list took out battalions on their own.
 
The guy I work with was like these guys...he was special forces marines in Vietnam...but he wasn't IN VIETNAM...he was like one of those guys that "disavows any knowledge of you" or whatnot...he was in cambodia on the ho-chi-min trail...his platoon used to get some crappy army assigned to them every once in a while for support and he said they used to follow their "mates" into bars and whatnot and pick out the assholes they didn't want to go with them cause they would fuck up the mission....

the captain would tell the generals, "We don't want X, Y, Z with us" and the generals did what they were told....they did that after the first few times they had to kill their OWN PEOPLE in the field cause they would have fucked everything....

this guy is totally badass...i am glad he doesn't flip out and have crazy flashbacks cause I am certain he could kill everyone within a 10 mile radius with a bic pen.....

he is over 50 and does like 20 PULL UPS a day AT WORK with me.....seriously....he wakes up everyday at 4am and works out for 3 hours before getting ready to come to work

he is rambo....
 
Anyone can call in airstrikes, but only Churchill kills people with a fucking sword and then plays bagpipes to taunt the others.

right. Forget that jumped out of a helicopter with just a knife, saved the lives of 8 or so soldiers, and undoubtedly directly lead to the deaths of more enemy than some psychopath with a sword, it doesn't count because he wasn't actually throwing the bombs.
