With friends like that - who needs enemies, but what's with the "Is your husband gay" message at the bottom?

That is a heck of a story. I wonder if they had to ask for a volunteer to the operation or it was just lock of the draw for whatever doc was on duty?

What's the matter Rookie? Are you afraid your wife will read the post?

The doctor's body may have been protected(?) but his arms would have been lost. And for a doctor, that's not good. He is one brave and dedicated physician.

Wow that's just crazy. That doctor was one brave man to have done that, even with the protective coat. That's great that he got it out successfully though. That would of been nasty had it gone off while removing it.

A grenade in the leg? C'mon guys... we all know there's a reason they're called hand grenades!!
