As an Infantryman, having to listen to all these facebook grandmas and “ballistics experts” tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about, has been boiling my blood for 10 months.

When addressing a gunshot casualty in Tactical Combat Casualty Care/Combat Lifesaver training (TCCC/CLS), is to find/dress the entry wound, and then look for the exit wound, with the major caveat, that THERE IS NOT ALWAYS AN EXIT WOUND, and in many cases, if there is an exit wound, it’s not where you would expect it to be, because bullets ricochet off bones, can pop out at different locations, or tumble inside the body and never exit.

Bullets do strange things inside the body if they connect with bones, and they are largely unpredictable. So for all the people who continue to say “there’s no way a .30 caliber bullet would not leave an exit wound”, you dipshits have ZERO clue what you’re talking about. This shit happens all the time, especially given that Robinson used a round designed to fragment to cause more damage on impact, not designed for penetration.

This will go down as the dumbest 10 months in internet history.
