HOOK (first 3 seconds spoken):
A US soldier took a brick and broke three of his fingers during the Iraq

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FULL SCRIPT:
A US soldier took a brick and broke three of his fingers during the Iraq war. He did this because the next day he was supposed to go on a convoy mission, but most roads were full of bombs and those missions rarely came back. So in order to escape the duty, some soldiers injured themselves just bad enough to get sent home, but not bad enough to ruin their future.
