U.S. Army Helicopter Goes Down in Iraq
« on: August 09, 2006, 01:59:34 PM »
A U.S. Army helicopter crashed in Iraq's western Anbar province, leaving two crew members missing and four injured, while hundreds of Iraqi and U.S. troops poured into the capital in a desperate bid to stem sectarian violence that is threatening to ignite a civil war.

Yea, I was watching a show on TV here a few weeks ago - a fly-on-the-wall documentary following an American Army combat unit in Iraq. If I remember correctly they're posted there for 1 year and get 2 weeks of the whole time.
