Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Memorial for the crew of Extortion 17. Chinook shot down in Afghanistan

nor should it be Mark.

I saw this sign at the national cemetery at Little Bighorn and this was written on it

The muffled drums sad roll has beat
The soldiers last tattoo
No more on life's parade shall meet
That brave and fallen few


Anyhow till Valhalla

Thanks for bringing it back to our attention Mark.

A salute of respect for the fallen and their service.

RIP.

I still see their faces.

Still not forgotten.

They will never be forgotten, as they are brother in arms HAJ!

God Bless the Great Warriors!

Mark we'll never forget this brave crew as well as so many others who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

Since your thread is " In Memoriam" thought I might add this if you don't mind..

Jim's {ET} not here anymore so I'll post in his behalf ...Oscar AKA "Speedy" Gonzalez was his friend KIA Jan, '70 at the battle of Hill 474 where Jim and I crossed paths in another lifetime. I know his thoughts today as well as many of us are focused on those we left behind and we pray for their loved ones who have borne this grief for so many years.



Oscar L.. Jim center..

Thanks for remembering this again this year.
