does that entitle you to a nifty web badge like the Order of the Garand thumb?

The first time I played with my Hakim it made me think that the Garand thumb during ROTC was nothing compared to what that thing could do to me. Same goes with the AG-42 that I picked up later.

I did that with a 20 gauge Browning A5 back when I was 12 years old. Unlike the one in "Figure 14", though, it actually tore off the skin on a fairly good sized portion of my thumb. It bled pretty good for a while.
