Apache Down North of Baghdad, Two Crewmen Killed
 Bad guys seem to be getting too good at this - where'd they get the newfound skill, Iran?A US Apache helicopter shot down, killing two soldiers on board, near Taji air base north of Baghdad Friday. After the fourth helicopter crash in two weeks, Americas top general Peter Pace acknowledged that US aircraft were increasingly in danger from ground fire. The Apache was one of two flying together when gunmen opened fire sending it crashing to the ground. It was the first admission by a US military official that the recent crashes were caused by ground fire. Posted by: Glenmore 2007-02-03 |
