Typical Military

I was reading a post regarding a war photographer today (here)and reminded me of an experience I had while in the Navy. They told him to leave!

A huge accident happened on the flight deck of the ship I was stationed on in a war zone where a bunch of sailors where killed or injured we as photographer where told to leave... but we had a job to do. The end result it did not go well but I was able to get out of it. Here is a video with the individual talking about his experience.
