Well, if it's crashed, I'd presume the helicopter is beyond "breaking" and probably "broken".
Okay, okay,.... prayers being sent.
LOL! I understand what you mean TT.
And I for one can appreciate the bit of levity.
Thanks my fellow Texan.
Thirty-one US marines have been killed in a helicopter crash in western Iraq near the border with Jordan.
According to reports, the transport helicopter came down close to Ar Rutbah just after 1am in poor visibility.
It was carrying personnel from the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing and the 1st Marine Division.
Military officials said a search and rescue team was at the scene and an investigation was under way.
A Pentagon spokesman said the helicopter was a CH-53 Sea Stallion which is normally carries up to 37 passengers but can take up to 55.
The crash is believed to be the worst of its kind since the US led-invasion of Iraq.
In November 2003 two Black Hawks collided and crashed in Mosul after coming under fire, killing 17 soldiers.
Earlier the same month, 16 troops died when a Chinook was shot down by insurgents in western Iraq.
