Very nice overall. The gun truck brimgs back memories.
One thing, too much rust on fiberglass or aluminum parts. Other than that, nicely done.

How about your figure? I think it came out very decent.

I didn't even notice your 18Bravo figure until you mentioned it. I had to zoom in on it, but yes you're right. It even looks like me. It is well done, as are the others. And it's still one of few left handed figures available.
Another small thing - when we wore sterile uniforms as we did, we would not have worn the Ranger tab or a combat patch. I am impressed with the painting of both though.

Now if you can, get rid of the rust on the gun truck (you can show some aluminum chipping if you like, but sparingly) and that scene could be right out of my Iraq photo album.

One final thought: If this was supposed to be a hit, it might make it more visually appealing to have that wooden door opened, nearly off the hinges, and cut in half diagonally with the top portion missing.(shredded) A flex linear charge will do that.

Great job! I like the weathering and paint chipping.
