Bella la seconda..Seals e CCT insieme!!!
Ce ne sono una valanga su gearsoc, evidentemente prese da FB, la gran parte sono gli operatori morti nello schianto del Chinook...RIP
Tra l'altro mentre č successo il fattaccio io ero in USA...la cosa incredibile č che la notizia di questa tragedia č stata ben poco messa in risalto nei telegiornali.
Sapevo di questo modo di fare degli americani,ma non credevo che una cosa del genere venisse trattata in questo modo.
cosė funziona per i militari, soprattutto per i reparti speciali... meno si sa, meglio č per tutti.
anche perchč notizie come "sono morti in uno schianto di un elicottero" solitamente servono per coprire ALTRE notizie sulla vera morte.

No non č per quello...dopo la guerra del Vietnam gli americani si sono resi conto che far vedere immagini dei loro soldati morti era deleterio per l'opinione pubblica.Quote:

Le immagini dei corpi nei "body bags" o le bare con la bandiera sopra da allora sono sparite dai media e il risalto dato alle morti dei militari molto ridotto.
Sapevo di questa cosa,ma non l'avevo mai vista di persona e pensavo che fosse un uso del passato..invece continua ad essere cosė.
Ribadisco che in questa Gallery di fanta-politica, complotti e compagnia bella non si parla e nemmeno ci si accenna onde evitare flame su argomenti che hanno poco a che fare con lo spirito del fan club.. Cerchiamo di discutere le foto in maniera asettica.Quote:

Master Sergeant Mark Hurst (Chief Master Sergeant as of November 2010) TACP
Hurst is an outstanding example of the men and women serving in our military. I took many photographs of him while I was a guest of the 14th Air Support Operations Squadron during a day of training at Camp Mackall in December 2006. The following is reprinted from an Air Force Document: Hurst was faced with a medical discharge from the Air Force after losing his left eye during combat operations in Afghanistan in 2004. As a TACP member, he had more than 100 parachute jumps to his credit, unparalleled training, and passed the ultimate test with combat experience. But the real reason Sergeant Hurst remains in the Air Force today is because of his desire and his heart; not being able to wear his country’s uniform was simply unacceptable to the 12-year Air Force veteran.
His injury came during his fifth combat tour in Iraq and Afghanistan. He was serving as a Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) in Afghanistan, controlling airpower in support of ground forces. On the day he was injured, a rocket-propelled grenade hit his vehicle, leaving him with severe shrapnel wounds to the left side of his face, body and eye. He was treated at the field hospital in Afghanistan and quickly airlifted to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center, Germany, and eventually to Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington D.C.
Once he recovered and was fitted with a prosthetic eye, Sergeant Hurst would accept nothing less than being able to contribute to the Air Force and his country. He went to work as the Operations Training Manager and Parachutist Program Manager at Pope AFB, N.C. During this time, he requested a waiver and worked to remain qualified to serve in the combat zone. His waiver was approved and he is now again able to static-line parachute jump. He deployed to Iraq to serve his sixth combat tour from March to July 2006.
Sergeant Hurst’s experiences have made him a strong advocate for wounded Airmen. He is often a guest briefer to senior leaders in a variety of courses, sharing his perspective on ways to help wounded Airmen and their families through the difficult recovery period.
Sergeant Hurst serves today because of his devotion to duty, his commitment to the Air Force, and his determination to remain a TACP operator who proudly contributes to his country in uniform.
What follows is an excerpt from Stars & Stripes October 27, 2008:
Air Force Master Sgt. Mark Hurst ran the Marine Corps Marathon in honor of Air Force Capt. Eric Das, who was killed when his F-15 went down in 2003 in Iraq. Hurst, 35, was part of a team that recovered the remains of the two people in the plane, and he later became friends with Das’ widow, according to information from event organizers. Nikki Das, 31, of Alexandria, Va., said Sunday marked the second time that Hurst ran the marathon in memory of her husband. It will not be the last, Hurst said. "I’ll keep doing it," he said.
NOTE: As of late 2010 Chief Master Sergeant Hurst was serving as an instructor at the Air Force Senior Noncommissioned Officer Academy at Maxwell AFB.
