A Voicemail From A War Zone
Phillips had accidentally called home during a firefight in Afghanistan. Having tried to reach his family in Otis, Ore., earlier that day, the phone’s “redial” feature was activated as Phillips pressed against the cell phone mid-battle. Mother Sandie Petee found the three-minute message which ended with the words “incoming R-P-G!”
In addition to the chaos and gunfire, what appears to be the soldiers identifying where enemy fire is coming from is also heard. “Back in the corner,” someone shouts. Moments later, “We need more ammo.”
“The tape cuts off with ‘incoming R-P-G!’ so we started calling him and finally got a hold of him and found out that he was ok and that they survived,” Petee said.
Glad it had a happy ending.
