Hard-headed Marine Walks Away From Shot to Helmet

CAMP FALLUJAH, Iraq Cpl. Daniel M. Greenwald knows that being hard headed isn't always a bad thing.

Greenwald, from G Company, 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, was shot in the head by a sniper while conducting vehicle checkpoint operations in the Al Anbar Province, Iraq. He's now an expert at explaining just how good his helmet is.

"I was the greeter on one of the ends of a vehicle checkpoint," said Greenwald, a 24-year-old assaultman from Rockland County, N.Y. "I was doing a double check on my vehicle, turned in and that's when I got shot."

The bullet's impact knocked him out for a short moment. When he woke, he was wondering what sort of 18-wheeled truck just hit him.

"Everything went black," he said. "I knew I got hit with something. It sounded like a grenade or a small improvised explosive device."

Greenwald jumped behind his humvee for cover as soon as he got to his feet. Still dazed from the impact, he radioed his Marines that he was hit.

Marines set up security to block the area they believed the round originated.

"We wanted to make sure he was alright and get him out of there," said Cpl. Daniel J. Kelley, a 25-year-old squad leader from Centerville, Tenn. "The squad reacted well. They set up the cordon automatically."

The squad's hospital corpsman rushed to aid Greenwald.

"When I first got up there I thought he was dead because blood was running down his face," said Navy Seaman Jared D. Condry, a 20-year-old corpsman from Jacksonville, N.C. "Then I started talking to him and he was responsive."

Condry began to assess Greenwald's injury and discovered an inch-long gash on his head. He put a patch on the wound and loaded him into a humvee that transported him to Camp Fallujah.

U.S. Marines from the 3rd Batallion yell to urge infantrymen to rush across the damaged Baghdad Highway Bridge, Monday, April 7, 2003, as they move forward into the city while under fire in the southeastern outskirts of Baghdad.

U.S. Marines with 3rd Batt., 7th Marines, 1st Marine Division load an injured Iraqi man on to their vehicle after the bus he was riding in came under fire as it entered a military compound that U.S. Marines had recently taken in southeast Baghdad on Tuesday, April 8, 2003.

After a Marine clearing a home was shot in the arm by a team of insurgents holed up inside, his comrades withdrew and kept the fighters at bay, with a shoulder-fired rocket and rifle fire, as an enormous D-9 armored bulldozer flattens the building, on Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2004, Falluja, Iraq. After taking numerous killed and wounded while searching homes, Marines have adopted the strategy of demolishing any building harboring insurgents rather than fighting them room to room.

Kilo Co. 3rd Battalion 1st Marines continue house to house fighting in Fallujah for a fifth day, in an effort to dislodge insurgents on Saturday, Nov. 13, 2004. After entering a house to clear it of remaining insurgents, a stand-off lasted for more than an hour, as the Marines struggled to evacuate their casualties under fire. Finally able to exit the building, engineers implemented a 20 lb. satchel charge of C-4 high explosive to demolish the structure.
