WI during the BHD battle, 1 or more of the 160th SOAR's MH-6 or AH-6 Little Birds was also lost to Somali ground fire, esp from RPGs as had claimed the 2 Blackhawks SUPER 6-1 and 6-4 ? WI say the Little Bird landing at the 6-1 crash site was also taken out by an RPG, or if another Little Bird had been authorised to evac badly wounded Cpl Jamie Smith (the Ranger shot in the femoral artery) and been shot up ? Would, as Delta Sgt Hoot says in the movie, the remaining beleagured TFR soldiers have been defending yet another crash-site, and how would US casualties etc have been affceted even worse ?
