Pfc. James Freed, of Odon, Ind., points to the exit hole a bullet made through his helmet when a sniper attacked him while on patrol in the Sadr City area in June. Freed, a tanker assigned to Company A, 2nd Battalion, 5th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, was wounded by the shot, which grazed his scalp. "It's still hard for me to fathom that it actually happened," said Freed, who has been in the Army for 18 months. "I got shot in the head and walked away."
