1. Thirty SEAL Team 6, National Guard, and Army Reserve were packed
into a decrepit 1960s era CH-47 helicopter (something, according to military experts,
that was unheard of.) Per military experts, special operations were always conducted
with the state-of-the-art MH-47 helicopter—the helicopter SEAL Team 6 exclusively
trained in. Further, never—ever—were that many special operations personnel packed
into a single helicopter.
They were always split up into small groups with multiple MH-47s.

2. Although the military could have easily taken out the Taliban positions
with a drone strike prior to the operation, as the families were later told,
this was not done because there were possible “friendlies” among the Taliban;
the United States wanted to “win the minds and hearts of the enemy.”

3. Although the military had intel that the Taliban were planning on firing on a helicopter,
although an intense battle had been raging for several hours,
and although normal protocol mandated that the CH-47 required at least one gunship escort,
all normal rules of war were suspended.

4. There were eight nameless Afghan commandos onboard the CH-47.
Eight Afghan commandos were loaded onto the CH-47 along with their American counterparts;
but at the last minute, they were replaced without changing the manifest.
It was as if someone knew they were going on a suicide mission
and pulled them out.
The official in charge of the investigation (General Jeffrey Colt), in his 1250-page report, did
not address this fact and did not even mention it.
In fact, it is likely these original Afghan commandos contacted the Taliban,
telling them the CH-47 was on its way.

5. Everyone on Extortion 17 was immediately cremated without permission
from the families, supposedly because the bodies were so badly burned in the crash.
According to Charles Strange, father of Navy SEAL Michael Strange, this need to
immediately cremate everyone aboard is a complete lie.
Taliban on the ground in fact found the bodies of the crew.
The Obama administration cremated everyone in order to cover up something.

6. The CH-47 black box was “lost” according to the military investigation
—“washed away by an Afghan flood.” As most know, aircraft black boxes don’t get “lost”;
they are virtually indestructible and carry a tracking device that makes them easy to locate.
It was “lost” in order to cover up something the Obama administration wants to keep hidden.

7. Probably one of the most shocking revelations in the SEAL Team 6 coverup,
something that was first brought out during the press conference that shows
Obama is no Christian but is in fact a closet Muslim, is that Barack Hussein Obama
disallowed the name of Jesus to be spoken during the initial military memorial service
in Kabul and permitted a radical Islamic iman to curse our dead heroes.

Perhaps they were immediately cremated because evidence of an on board explosive might be found on their bodies? Was that helicopter inspected prior to take-off? Or the Afghans boarding it for that matter? Hmmmmm..

84-24175 was remanufactured in 1985 and upgraded to a Delta model. These "experts" don't know much about tactical aviation if they think that operating with old aircraft is unheard of. Operation Neptune Spear was executed with two H-60 Blackhawks. They also train in MH-6s and H-53s. So much for the "exclusive" use of Chinooks.

The burial of CW4 David Carter, pilot of Extortion 17. Cremains buried in a wooden coffin? Why not an urn?
