Blackhawk Down, Sorry To used to talking in code. Shugart and his partner ( Gary Gordon)died protecting Michael Durant when Super 64 went down. Their families were given THE Medal by Scumbag Clinton. If you don't know the story I recommend "Blackhawk Down" by Mark Bowden and the movie which has a slightly different slant on the story.

I liked the book better than the movie - more direct quotes and relation of what happend from the Patriots who were actually there. Shugart and Gordon are true heros, and I fully understand Shugart's father allegedly not shaking x-42's hand when receiving the CMH. Those men should have had the AC130 Spectre flying shotgun above them.
