(NSFW) Medics Remove RPG Warhead From Marine's Leg

Video from Afghanistan in 2012 shows a battlefield surgeon and EOD tech removing a Taliban RPG warhead from a Marine's leg, while nurses assist from behind cover in fear that the explosive will detonate.


From the reports, Lance Cpl. Winder Perez was struck in the leg by the projectile during a battle. MedEvac air crews ignored rules about transporting unexploded ordnance to evacuate the wounded Marine. Other reports indicate that the warhead was unexploded, although aftermath photos appear to show an exploded warhead. It's possible the rocket propelled grenade exploded near the Marine, and the shank or shaft of the munition continued into Perez. Regardless, it's insane.
