In the 19 May 2006 issue of The Point, the cover story is about the awarding of the Distinguished Flying Cross to one of the aviators who flew our Apaches in Kandahar.
The article has an excellent review and summary, so I won't repeat...
I will say that it certainly brought back some memories. I remember that day. It was a long one as the birds flew what seemed like endless missions. I also remember the particular bird coming back all shot up. He really did stay out there and support those troops over and over... coming back to refuel and rearm as needed.
Excellent work, Chief...
