One year ago today I placed this Red, White And Blue floral arrangement with United States Of America Flags at the Angel Of Hope Statue for 10 Brave American Heroes.
On October 26th, 2009, a 3/160 SOAR MH-47 Chinook, tail #747 crashed in Badghis province, western Afghanistan in a joint operation with 7th Special Forces and the DEA.
Seven US Servicemen, 5 assigned to 3rd Battalion, 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, two assigned 3rd Battalion, 7th Special Forces Group, and three agents from the Drug Enforcement Administration.
At that time it was the second deadliest day for Americans during Operation Enduring Freedom.
