Danny,
I doubt I suffered more than you did. I've just checked and the red spot of its sting is still on my forearm now. I remember swiping the thing off and seeing a white "pumping" lump still there pushing the venom in. The USAF doc told me it was some form of Hornet. This gives you an idea of the size:
I do know if I hadn't had the hammock rest I'm sure I would have been in worse shape. Sorry to go "off thread". More radar and approaches please sir.
