:15:00
Yes, sir, we did.
:15:02
We were all wounded one way or another.
:15:04
We weren't trained
for that kind of situation, sir.
:15:07
Don't have to make excuses to me.
:15:10
Go on, Sam.
:15:11
That's all we got so far, sir.
:15:13
OK.
:15:15
- Lieutenant Chelli.
- Yes, sir.
:15:17
Well,
as if things weren't bad enough already,
:15:21
one of their T-54s...
:15:23
joins the ragheads up on the ridge.
:15:32
Incoming! Get down!
:15:37
That round
kills the medic, Relleno, Gerspach,
:15:42
and, uh, Egan here lost his leg.
:15:44
So we figure that's it. We're dead.
:15:48
But then we hear it.
:15:49
Nothing like the sound of an inbound Huey.
:15:57
Yeah!
:16:01
This Huey, did it take any fire?
:16:04
Right off the bat.
:16:04
But this time
when the Huey comes back, it returns fire.
:16:09
Ground troops go for cover.
:16:10
Then the Huey circles back over the tank...
:16:13
That's when
they threw something overboard.
:16:16
- Threw something, or something fell off?
- I couldn't tell, but the tank blew.
:16:22
Oh!
:16:23
Yeah!
:16:25
Man, did it ever blow!
:16:28
We, uh, we never did see
what knocked the Huey down.
:16:36
We couldn't see the crash.
:16:38
That night we caught sporadic ground fire.
:16:42
The Huey was down below,
between us and the enemy,
:16:45
so they caught most of it.
:16:47
Any communications
between you and them?
:16:50
No, sir. As I said, our radio was wasted.
:16:52
Shouting just draws enemy fire.
:16:54
So the Iraqis,
they start to close in on the Huey...
:16:59
under cover fire,
