When the explosion hit, the impact literally rocked the ground underneath us. Lance Corporal Harris was ordered to move back toward base with Private Shea, so I was instructed to buddy up with Private Jameson and drive out to investigate the point of impact. We were near Nellis Air Force Base at the time, and it was August so it was good to be out in the desert with the jeep. Time was zero three forty-three hours; weather was relatively cool. Millions of stars shone bright in the sky that night.
Private First Class Beaumont Reynolds: I was named after Beaumont Texas, even tho I was born and raised in San Antonio. Edward Jameson and I had been bunk mates after we enlisted, and fate had brought us back together on the same fire team. Hed grown so big since Id seen him last, he looked like hed been sucking on an air hose. You ate your way to the Pork Chop Squad Bro!
