Yeah, brown recluse bites are bad news. I was bit in Basic Training in Missouri. I was VERY lucky that it was a small one and I got attention for it quickly. I have a VERY small scar below my right thumb on the palm of my hand.
Missouri, FYI, sucks. We regularly encountered poisonous snakes, spiders and other critters in the field. Oh, and deer ticks. And other nasty things. God I hat that state. The Ozarks are not THAT pretty!
