Thanks for changing it for me!

The story.. It's not a happy one. Years ago... I was on a NATO peace-keeping mission in southern China. It was our job to make sure that the refugees fleeing the border into southeast Asia were able to do so safely without being shot in the back. It was a hot August evening, I remember we were listening to Sir Mix-a-lot on a portable boombox. That's when it all went to hell. In a split second, half a dozen black helicopters came over the hill spraying the villagers with machine gun fire. They hovered 40' above a position between the outpost and the refugees. Next thing you know, their equivalent of SpecOps units began rapelling to the ground. Even though they were far away, we could tell these weren't regular soldiers. Each one had the physique of a world-class body builder. We had a patrol who had been taking cover nearby so bravo team was able to pick them off before they hit the ground. Realizing they were in an inferior tactical position, and taking fire, the helocopters fled over the ridgeline. When the smoke had cleared we went to inspect the masked bodies. They were even bigger in person--but unarmed aside from the 2 foot section of bamboo they were each holding in their gloved hands. The second we pulled the masks PFC Miller fainted. They were freaking pandas, not men! Six of them. All dead. It was probably the most traumatizing experience of my whole life. I've never been able to forgive myself, so I always make my username Sixdeadpandas to remind me of the humanity I lost that hot jungle day.

TL;DR - I just chose a random username that I knew wasn't taken on other sites.
