"Im still confused about the whole thing. Wasn't the original report of him lighting a match? And that the explosives were C4? I didn't know you could detonate C4 with a match."

Can C4 be detonated by a fused blasting cap (as one would w/ TNT). Inquiring minds want to know.

We used to cook our C-Rats with C-4. Occasionally some moron would take little pieces (pretending they were picking their nose)and flick them in the fire. This guy obviously didn't know what he was doing. Semper Fidelis!!
