Lorry? Windscreen? Bonnet? Gobsmacked? What happened to the guy is barely even in English.

well, at least he wasn't the Humvee driver from Blackhawk Down (true story)

He ended up with an unexploded RPG grenade in his chest. The Captain sitting next to him had a real "Come to Jesus" event, and became a chaplain not too much later. So Delta Force has a fully ordained chaplain with battle ribbons, jump wings, is an expert marksman and everything.
