Marcus Dest is a veteran of the Gulf War, and every operation since. The A-10 he flies, the "Sky King", has been hit by every bullet that is found in the Middle East, and is one of the original A-10's made during the Gulf War. During his past deployment, he flew 357 sorties against the Taliban, hitting caves and houses. And oddly enough, he's never been hit personally by a bullet, his plane has stopped all of them."}
