I have hurt my arm.

How did I hurt my arm?

I am part of the Territorial Army Group B, which is a branch in the TA that allows uni students to take part in the training, but we don't get shipped off to war nor is it a full time job. However, we do get paid!

Anyway, I'm in the Royal Artillery: BIG GUNS! Yay! Boom!

In order to put a specific design of heavy artillery gun (namely the L118 Light Gun) into action, you have to remove the wheel to enable the barrel of the gun to spin into the correct place.

If you didn't get that, I'm sorry. Here's how it happened: It was dark (01.30 am), I was tired and the wheel is very heavy. The spinning barrel knocked me forward and the weight of the wheel pushed my right arm under the cradle which is what unables the barrel to spin.

Hence..CRUNCH!!!

Now because I screamed bloody murder, I got away with not have broken bones. Trust me, it could so easily have been done. Instead, the x-ray showed that the muscle, fat and lower skin layer had been crushed into one big bruise!

Dunno about you, but I think that sounds cool!! Hurts like a bitch though. :(

So there's my story. The moral is - join the artillery! We're super awesome cool! :aww:
