Accidentally on purpose.

They were being a-holes.

A government helicopter flew threateningly low near a Cajun Navy volunteer supply drop in North Carolina and blew their supplies all over the parking lot

It would have been denied if it wasn’t on video.

Die hire pilots? Obviously not qualified to be in the cockpit.

Assuming that you know what their mission was to begin with.

The NG Helo hovered for a considerable amount of time and knew exactly what they were doing.
A lame excuse like this after multiple days is an indicator of their ill intentions.

The Government must not have approved of the Aid Display. It is doing things the Government Approved way and by Government Personnel that matters. And these damn peasants better learn that.

I think the term is “court-martial.”

Grounded, but probably will get medals and promotions for the mission.

I showed this to a buddy of mine who served in the Marines. He was on the fence due to his experience with being dropped no where near the LZ and seeing rotor wash chuck tents.. pilots see it happen and try to find another spot. He says this crap shouldn’t happen but does.

The video looks like they were gonna land on the tent area to me! I cannot imagine the pilot not seeing this.

I imagine Harris will be talking about how a Black Glock blew some tents over.

Well, she does claim to possess a Black Glock, and she knows blows to a degree that few outside the sidewalks of K street after 11pm, and sailors in the Royal Navy know.
