No, not combat for me. Underground mining and blasting "rounds". Still, the blasts were fairly sizable, and I while I was "technically" at a
safe distance, when close to 700 pounds(around 300 kilos)of explosives went off, it still had quite an impressive effect on me. I could only imagine what it would be like being closer to the blast and within range of the flying debris.
