It shames me to see the thousands of views and ratings bestowed upon pure drivel as our heroes sit and recount their battle stories in solitude.

We thank you and your family for your sacrifice.

B.co. 9/101st Abn.Avn. Phantoms "eyes over Mogadishu aug93-mar94.

Regaurding all the negative comments, you can focus on all the bad things that happened if you want, thats the easy way out blame all your problems on someone else. we were soldiers following orders to aid and assist, and we did that every time I flew anyway.

Somalia with 24th TC was a nightmare on the day I got caught in a riot, just out from the port alone at the time driving my M-915 loaded above the side boards on the trailor with water bottle boxes, uncovered, I was swamped with Somalis trying to hault my truck and the convoy i was supposed to be following was gone! I was alone and my door lock was broken and my door kept being opened by somalians running along side my truck opening the latch handle. Oft flashback moment of my military Career.

Easy for you to say that but let's see how Americans would react if Mexico took Texas and California from you. Not only that but also, let's see how Americans react when they hear atrocious stories coming from those occupied American territories (Texas and California)done by the Mexican army against your people. The only thing that unites Somalis whether they are religious or non-religious, whether they belong to various feuding clans is Ethiopia and her unmistakable threat to Somalia.
