    Default "Blackhawk Down" - Letter from one pilot

    Subject: A Soldier's Eye-View of "Blackhawk Down"

    The author of the below E-mail, Gerry Izzo, is currently a Captain at Comair. He flew one of the UH-60s on the mission that is depicted in the movie "Blackhawk Down."

    During the last few days many pilots have come up to me and asked me if I had seen the movie "Blackhawk Down." I don't mind talking about the movie, and I welcome the opportunity to talk about the heroism and valor of my friends. I just wanted to post some comments here about the movie and my impressions. Also I wanted to try to answer some frequently asked questions....

    Smile Excellent find!

    Seen the film and read the book too - missing all the pilots points made, except send in armour, not helicopters at the end. Adds a new perspective and so circulated to a few friends around the globe.

    Keep them coming Sarejevo!
