WOW, watch author Don Brown blow the lid off of the official government report about the tragic shoot down of SEAL TEAM SIX helicopter, Code Name - Extortion 17.

On August 6, 2011—three months after members of Navy SEAL Team Six killed Osama Bin Laden—Taliban forces took down a United States helicopter, call sign "Extortion 17." The attack killed the Air National Guard crew, seven unidentified members of the Afghan military, and seventeen members of Navy SEAL Team Six—warrior brothers from the same Team that had killed Osama Bin Laden just ninety days prior.

Were the seven Afghan soldiers aboard that helicopter really undercover Taliban who either maneuvered the chopper within easy range of being shot down or sabotaged it from within? Were the SEALs sacrificed on the altar of political correctness and deliberately flown into a known Taliban hot zone?

Don Brown, a former U.S. Navy JAG officer stationed at the Pentagon and a former special assistant United States attorney, re-creates the wartime action, tells the life stories of the elite warriors our nation lost on that day, and tears apart the official military explanation of the incident contained in the infamous Colt Report, which reveals either gross incompetence or a massive cover-up.

I listened while reading (can't believe I can still do that) but the SEAL families were given 1200 documents and Don Brown offered to go through the documents for them. He is interviewed with SEAL dad Aaron Vaughn.

Link for the book:

So the corruption is totally widespread throughout our government. I've been so naive and love the ideal, but no longer. I've been in contact with 3 families who have personally experienced the corruption. Why is that surprising? I am practically a recluse.

So in honor of those who have demonstrated the greatest love, I ask that you listen to the video.

I am so sorry, Billy Vaughn is the dad of SEAL Aaron Vaughn. Billy Vaughn also has a book out called “Betrayed: The Shocking True Story of Extortion 17 as told by a Navy SEAL’s Father.”

I just finished watching the documentary on Mike Murphy, of course I knew the story, but I hadn’t seen this documentary since I don’t have cable.

From there I watched some of Lone Survivor again, and videos of Marcus.

To cap off my evening/morning, I watched a documentary on Chris Kyle. And clips from American Sniper, I didn’t think I could watch the entire movie again as I am so sad over the loss of lives of these brave men.

All the while, I was wondering about THIS, Extortion 17, as I had watched videos in the past with some of the parents and listening to information.

Thank you for putting this up. I will wait until I’ve had some rest to watch it. My heart can’t possibly take anymore at this hour.

God Bless the men and women who willingly gave their all.
And may God Bless those serving to protect us now, as I type these thoughts.

Memorial Day is as important to me as Easter, and it is the celebration of the Resurrection that enables me to get through remembering those who have lived the greatest love.

It is nice to know the nation remembers them at this time, but we remember them all the time. Our lives are changed because they were ordered Home. Our hope is in the King who promised that all things will work together for good for those who love Him, and are called by Him.

I'm at a point where my anger is more than likely going to put me in prison or get me killed

It's reports like this that send me back to my anti-war days of the 60's and 70's ... that I outgrew and painted the memories with red, white and blue

God ... PLEASE help us

As an Apache tech, I worked with Seal Team 6 for systems familiarization, and no SEAL mission was ever done without Apache gunship cover and direct communication. Why did these SEALs go there without Apache FLIR observation support is beyond unbelievable! This is another Blackhawk Down fiasco, imo. .. Being refused adequate CAS support for some reason during insertion. Any attack unit will tell you that SOP were not applied, like, duh! Of course they got shot down, without the Apache.

Secondly SEALs always landed at remote locations from where they would sneak up on the enemy. Someone must have alerted the Taleban.

There is no other way they could have come in by chance upon them, because the enemy would have not been hidden laying in wait like this.

It happened right after bin Laden was done, as if there was a deal, him for them.

I was fortunate to attend a gathering in my hometwon that had Tom Trento (Tonto) as guest speaker.....
The large banquet room was packed to the gills.

He’s an honest, genuine speaker......God bless him.

I believe someday it all will be exposed, but thanks to Mr. Trento and others.....it’s being exposed slowly but surely.

Like everything else that has happened under the Regime, this stinks.

And by the way, show us the body.

FWIW-When I heard the news that the guys who got Bin Laden had been killed in a helicopter crashes -The very first thought/vibe I had was that it was done deliberately, as some kind of politically correct BS.

Funny how the anti-war 60’s seems to be repeating itself without the jeans, reefer and sit-ins

(from the article) :" Were the SEALs sacrificed on the altar of political correctness and deliberately flown into a known Taliban hot zone? "

lavaroise :" There is no other way they could have come in by chance upon them, because the enemy would have not been hidden laying in wait like this.
It happened right after bin Laden was done, as if there was a deal, him for them."

Sorta like a 'trade off' like Chris Stephens at Benghazi where he was going to be traded for the ' Blind Shiek' ? Listen to the verbal Utube !
Me thinks there is a traitor in the house !
Ya Think ?
Where ?
Why ?
