Christopher Frend, who was the team’s Navy medical member, had seen quite a few casualties in the past. However, he had never ever seen a severe case like Carpenter’s. The Marine’s arm was in such bad condition that he was scared it would fall off. His right eye almost fell out of its socket. The medical team noticed Carpenter was trying to speak and when they got closer they heard him ask ‘Am I going to die?’. The Marines did what they knew was the best course of action and started talking to Kyle about his family in order to keep him stable.
