I looked back at JT (Taylor) and told him, if he started taking fire, get this bird out of here, leave me and we’ll collect all of us later.”

Man, the bond these guys have...This choked me up. Totally selfless in times of crisis.

Too bad the 'pache don't have them fold down ammo bay doors like the snakes did hey 56? Real men don't need no stinkin' straps.

All kidding aside, Army Aviators are a breed apart.
