Sweet Jesus..... what a story. What a day in this young hero's life. OMG...

Question: Where were the helicopter gunships? Where were the helos? This giant fat juicy convoy had no helicopters, even on QRF standby?????

Gunships in the first 5 or 10 minutes would have saved a lot of Americans.

They may have been busy elsewhere.

Those two little Iraqi boys were pretty hard corps. 2 to 3 round bursts, good fire discipline.
