FORT LEONARD WOOD — An Army soldier attending basic training died from a massive rush of blood to his penis after firing the M2 .50-caliber machine gun for the first time, sources confirmed.

Pvt. Alvero Rojas was six weeks into his basic training when his unit went to the range for familiarization fire with several of the Army’s crew served weapons.

“Rojas enlisted to become an Admin Specialist but we take all of our basic trainees to the range to fire these weapons to give them an idea of what it’s like,” said Sgt. 1st Class Alexander Pitts, Rojas’s lead Drill Sergeant. “Just because a soldier is slated to end up behind a desk doesn’t mean they won’t find themselves shooting a .50 or MK19 at some point.”

Rojas’s death was regretted by his entire basic training company.

“He was liked by everybody in the unit. He always found a way to liven everyone’s spirits when training got tough. I know he was so excited to fire the .50-cal,” said Private Stephanie Taylor. “All he talked about for the week leading up to it were the weapon system’s capabilites. He actually walked around quoting the Army field manual about it.”

Witnesses stated that as Rojas began to fire the machine gun, he sprouted an erection which became so large it busted through the notoriously weak crotch seam of his ACU pants. Army medical officials listed his cause of death as priapism, described as “a persistent, usually painful, erection that lasts for more than four hours and occurs without sexual stimulation.”
