The story is about Channing Moss, who was impaled by a live RPG during a Taliban ambush while on patrol. Army protocol says that medivac choppers are never to carry anyone with a live round in him. Even though they feared it could explode, the flight crew said darn the protocol and flew him to the nearest aid station.  
Again, protocol said that in such a case the patient is to be  put in a sandbagged area away from the surgical unit, given a shot of morphine and left to wait (and die) until others  are treated. Again, the medical team ignored the protocol.  
Here's a short video put together by the Military Times, which  includes actual footage of the surgery where Dr. John Oh, a Korean immigrant who became a naturalized citizen and went to West Point, removed the live round with the help of volunteers and a member of the EOD (explosive ordinance disposal)  team.  
Moss  has undergone six operations but is doing well at home in Gainesville, GA.  I think you'll find the video absolutely remarkable.

Yes I agree the video is remarkable.  As I viewed the video I thought to myself, what amazing steady hands the surgeon had.
For himself as well as the others that helped and put their lives on the line as well to save his really shows dedication as well as compassion for a fellow soldier.
