Yes. Got cought while crossing a dried up rice paddy in the mountains. My plt. was crossing when a 12.7 along with AK's and SKS's opened up on us.
I layed down and helped our MG give return fire so the rest could withdraw down an embankment about 6' high. I had my canteen shot off my hip and my flack jacket got furrowed in the back on the way to my canteen.
Another time an NVA opened up on our column moving up a trail. He fired an RPG at me from about 20ft. the rd. hit some folage, exploded and got me with shrapned in the arm, shoulder, and neck. My flack jacket got all tore up, the same one I had on with the canteen incident.
Shrapenl in the legs and face from booby traps, incomming mortars etc. I had shrapned comming out of my legs and face years after I returned home.
