Good. I'll bet there are more than just four, and I hope they get them all.

I believe one of the earlier threads on this subject had some combat video of these incidents.

>>> In 2005, U.S. Army aircraft (mainly helicopters) flew 240,000 hours over Iraq. That increased to 334,000 hours last year, and is expected to go to 400,000 hours in 2007. The more time helicopters are in the air, the more opportunities someone has to shoot at them.<<<

Duncan Hunter has been on a crusade to get some more budget for replacement hardware given the huge workload they are experiencing in Iraq. These numbers prove he's right.

Unfortunately, the Demo controlled Congress can probably hold off Republican efforts to get military hardware into the budget.

There was a great video a fews days ago of them actually taking out one of them at night with an A10.

It is on a thread here somewhere.

War against cockroaches who use women and children as shields has to be comprehensive. When you locate these cockroaches you have to be ruthless, even as liberals are wringing their hands and leading the cheers for them.
