We've all been there, sentry at a remote post in the middle of the night. You can hear minimal traffic out on the main highway. If you are lucky, you have some help. Maybe another private, or a low ranking sergeant. But he's asleep in the guard shack.
If you are in the Iranian Army, you are wondering why someone posted you at a place called Fordow. Something about the nuke program, all you know is that it's top secret and your relief should be here at daylight. It's still dark and relief is still several hours away. Then you hear a sizzling sound, a thud, then a dull explosion. Then another, and another, and another. Then you think maybe it is time to wake up the sergeant.
You hope they don't blame it on you. Nobody came through the gate. The gate is still secure.
