death

[maxter7]

So as most of you know, I joined the military as a crew chief for A-10 Thunderbolt 2 warthog's. With my job there are inherent dangers that I must deal with on a daily basis. These dangers are present regardless of the mission, base or on deployment. Every day it seems I am educated on new ways I can die purely from working on the flight line. So just to enlighten you I figured I would compile I small list of ways I can die.

NOTE: this is not meant to scare, or depress anyone. Just to inform people if the given risks of an occupation.
