Apaches are earning a well deserved rep for taking an incredible amount of battle damage, and returning safely to base.

That doesn't make me want to stand up and cheer really.

Well, duh. It's a war. People die.

It would if you were an Apache pilot, and the alternative was crashing and burning after taking hits.

Think of the B-17s in WW2 flying back to England on one engine, half a wing gone, and the tail shot off.

Being able to fly after being shot up is a VERY GOOD THING.
