Helping a Friend in Need

Today you will notice some differences in our blog. These differences will consist of grammar mistakes and slightly different content than normal. All of these differences will make it clear as to which Shealy is writing this blog.

I have never authored a blog before but since my family and good friends have been making regular posts with no apparent side effects I decided it must be safe. Everyone seems to post stuff on their blog that shows events in their lives so here goes...


Helping a Friend in Need


A few days back a buddy and I were engaged in a modern warfare battle. My buddy had just eliminated a threat and turned to meet a new threat. Keep in mind that the initial threat dropped his ammunition so a reload was imminent. As any good partner would have done I recognized the need for assistance. Since a picture is worth a thousand words look below. You will see me at the bottom of the picture in blue. You will see my buddy off in the distance in blue. You will see the new threat close to my buddy in red:



As you can tell my buddy is a good distance away so to make it a little clearer here is a look from the opposite direction at the same moment in time:



Now most people would have said it was no good. My buddy was to far away and he was in the way but I am not most people. Here comes the glorious moment...the shot:



As pointed out earlier my buddy was in the way but knowing that he has a shield which can take an indirect hit I decided to chance it. Please note that timing is everything here and precision shooting is required:



My shot just nicks his hip and takes the threat in the head which drops him right before my buddies eyes:



And that my family and friends is how you step up and help a friend in need.
