An excellent book - gives more of the inside story of the Battle of Mogadishu from the perspective of the 160th SOAR. Also, delves into some other 160th stuff you may not have heard about. Not to sound like I'm on the wrong side, but it is clear the blame for the outrageous events of October 3-4, 1993, can be laid (no real surprise here) at the feet of the occupant of the Oval Office in 1993, rather than the Somalis. In fact, were it not for Aidid, and his knowledge of political gamesmanship, and a couple of Somalis who tended to him, Michael Durant would be dead. There is no doubt about that.
