很震精。。。只是随便看了两篇。SureFire Survives IED BlastOn March 23, 2007, we were on Patrol in the Al Anbar Province when one of our vehicles was struck by an IED. The force of the explosion killed one of my friends and caused the roof of the Humvee to detach from the vehicle. We never did find the driver's side passenger door, and the turret was thrown over 200 meters from the truck
.
After rendering aid to the wounded soldiers and securing the area, I found a SureFire flashlight on the ground
. Its window was broken and its head was smashed. I picked it up and pressed the button, and, to my amazement, it still worked! Finding the destroyed rifle it had been attached to made me believe that there truly is no better flashlight than SureFire in the world.

L4 a Lifesaver in IED ExplosionIt was a pitch-black, quiet night, and I was under the cover of a burned-out house. I saw what appeared to be an iPod and assumed it had been dropped by one of my fellow soldiers. Well, it wasn't an iPod; it was an IED (improvised explosive device).
I remember
a bright, white light flashing, and waking up several hours later with a wall on top of me. I was 99% covered and stuck, except for my free right arm. I could not see and could barely breathe, but I could hear what I thought were drones passing by overhead and other units passing by. But I couldn't make a sound. Then I remembered that my SureFire L4 LumaMax®was on my belt.
After 10 minutes of painful wiggling, I was able to reach my L4 with my right hand. My head was split wide open, my nose was nearly completely off my face, so I couldn't get enough air, and I was quickly passing out, but I was able to click my L4 on and off several times before losing consciousness. It was enough to get me noticed by the drone passing over me. Roughly 20 minutes later, I was rescued and extricated from under a ton of debris.
Now, 197 stitches later, I'm back home recuperating and rehabilitating. The hundred-plus dollars I spent on my L4 was worth every penny. This is a life-saving tool. My only regret is that, after I passed out, I dropped my L4 and lost it forever. But I'm already saving up for a new one and hope to rejoin my unit in a few weeks.
God bless America, God bless The Corps, and God bless SureFire!
