This one's a ambush captured on helmet cam - glad everyone came out OK. M320 in action.

The guy with the camera showed great trigger control. Very close to shooting one of his own. Got my heart rate up.

It looked like he had a stoppage just as his team mate crossed his line of fire.

It also looked like he was sitting up and moving around a lot while the others were flat on the ground. :)

Great video. Thank you.

I agree...it looked like a close call as he crossed his line of fire!

That was a great video--one of the better combat engagements demonstrating small unit action that I've seen. I was also nervous seeing the one guy cross the other's field of fire and was afraid a guy that had dropped down would pop up. I was never able to see the enemy, which isn't surprising given that I'm seeing from a camera but I was wondering at what point the enemy disengaged and how often they actually saw the enemy or muzzle flashes. They were lobbing quite a few grenades and putting down a fair amount of fire. What type of grenade launcher was being used? Is the guy with a camera an officer or NCO? Anyone notice the black thing on the sun?
