here’s a postscript to the story about “some guy” and my broken
hand.
The incident happened while we were training in an Army town.
I knew pretty much when I punched him that I’d broken my hand,
but there was no way in hell that I was going to the base hospital; if
I did, they’d realize I was (a) drunk and (b) fighting, and the MPs
would be on my ass. Nothing makes an MP’s day like busting a
SEAL.
So I waited until the next day. Now sober, I reported to the
hospital and claimed I had broken my fist by punching out my gun
before I actually cleared the doorjamb. (Theoretically possible, if
unlikely.)
While I was getting treated, I saw a kid in the hospital with his
jaw wired shut.


Next thing I knew, some MPs came over and started
questioning me.
“This kid is claiming you broke his jaw,” said one of them.
“What the hell is he talking about?” I said, rolling my eyes. “I just
came in off a training exercise. I broke my damn hand. Ask the SF
guys; we’re training with them.”
Not so coincidentally, all of the bouncers at the bar where we’d
been were Army SF; they would surely back me up if it came to
that.
It didn’t.
“We thought so,” said the MPs, shaking their heads. They went
back over to the idiot soldier and started bitching him out for lying
and wasting their time.
Serves him right for getting into a fight started by his girlfriend.
I
came back West with a shattered bone. The guys all made fun of
me for my weak genes. But the injury wasn’t all that funny for me,
because the doctors couldn’t figure out whether they should operate
or not. My finger set a little deeper in my hand, not quite where it
should be.
In San Diego, one of the doctors took a look and decided they
might be able to fix it by pulling it and resetting it in the socket.
I told him to give it a go.
“You want some painkiller?” he asked.
“Nah,” I said. They’d done the same thing at the Army hospital


back East, and it hadn’t really hurt.
Maybe Navy doctors pull harder. The next thing I knew I was
lying flat back on a table in the cast room. I’d passed out and
pissed myself from the pain.
But at least I got away without surgery.
And for the record, I’ve since changed my fighting style to
accommodate my weaker hand.
