  • Stay away from the walls!

    This story is the most compelling combat saga that has ever been in print. It showcases America's problem with its own military. When do we use them? How many do we send? How will they be equipped? What are the logistics of the involvement? Blackhawk Down shows us what happens when we go to war not prepared to go to war! This saga tells us about incredibly well trained troops being poorly led from up top. All honor should go to our servicemen and women.
