Black Hawk Down 0 Posted December 23, 2001 I have to admit that I couldn't remember what the heli's used in that op were, so i just said the black hawk.... Also, I know that the JCS and other "Brass" needed a scapegoat to blame for the Delta and AirForce casualities, so they conveniently pointed the universal finger at Beckwirth. It is my belief that Col. Beckwirth did not have a choice: He HAD to abort the op. There was no way he could go in with half his force. Oh, and i went to the link u posted, and believe it or not, that is INCREDIBLY incorrect misinformation on that site. No offence, but I know some D-boys, and everything i know about it comes from them.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
