Sultan,
I did not quote Carlton...that was other posters but not I. Get your facts straight please.
As to Robert's Ridge....yes Chinooks got eaten up....by RPG's, .51 Caliber Machinegun and small arms fire. They did so taking the fight to the enemy at very close range trying to save other brave men who were dying in combat with armed enemies.
Do you know the full complete story of Robert's Ridge?
I suggest you read up on it and re-think your comments.
Many good men died that day and we owe them a full measure of respect.
That again seems to be something you cannot find yourself able to do.
I suggest you get your head out of your hind end when it comes to denigrating other folk's service in combat.....you'd be a much better person if you did.
