Special Forces working with Afghan Army. The first guy through the door is AA. His weapon is hit and he turns and runs out the door (look for sparks when rounds hit his weapon). He is killed when he runs outside (this happens off camera). Insurgents inside the house shoot the AA soldier through holes in the front of the building. The Special Forces soldier neutralizes the threat. Training makes all the difference.
holy shit intense, what are your chances though of actually being put on the battlefield after completing training ? (serious question)
Canadian regular army, about 50/50
Canadian special forces very high chance you'll see action
US regular army, very high chance of combat
US special operations, most certainly
If they knew there were insurgents in there why would they not use a flash bang right away?
I've played enough COD to know it is always safer to throw a flash bang in first than to go in blind? I know COD is not real life, but one would think training should have suggested a flash bang first? This could have saved the life of the AA soldier.

edit;
^ that is pretty scary
Out of fb's? They do a lot of house-to-house clears so I wouldn't be surprised if they ran out of fb's quick.
