My Best Friend
I am a Staff Sergeant, and have been in the Army for a while now; I have 2 deployments under my belt and am in the 82nd Airborne Division. Since I joined the Army I had to have a Leatherman again, (after the great experiences as a boy scout with them) I went out and bought one right as when I got to my duty station and I have yet to go a day without one unless it has been lost or destroyed.
I have pretty much been called upon for a Leatherman or use it myself at least 4-5 times daily. I will not jump from planes or go on patrol without it. About 3 months ago I went on patrol through the farmlands here in Iraq and I got back and realized I had lost my Leatherman, so that night I called my wife and had another Surge ordered. I am on the website looking for my replacement screw driver tips right now. I am lost without my Leatherman.

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.
