Not for the squeamish...

http://www.btinternet.com/~scuzi/224Helicopter_Kills.mpegI'm downloading it now - it seems to "stall-out" mid-download...probably due to server-load/bandwidth/etc.

I saw the .mpeg I'm sure you're referring to a day or 2 ago and thought I would post-up then - but I thought better of it since it's pretty gruesome. Here's a faster url if you want: http://myweb.cableone.net/twigs/boom.mpeg (http://myweb.cableone.net/twigs/boom.mpeg) .

The killing-power of these Apaches is crazy! Like Garett said... don't watch it if your squeamish. Laney didn't like it AT ALL! :nono:

I understand this .mpeg is the heavily redacted version to hit the www and the FULL version is out there. I haven't ran across it yet. They say there's vid. of them swapping RPGs/AKs, etc. prior to this and this is why the team/gunner decided to go ahead and take them down.

I'm in the mood to watch Blackhawk Down, now! :tu: We need more like Shughardt(sp?)/Gordon! :bows

Also, do a Google/Kazaa/Bear-Share search on "AC-130U gunship video Afghanistan". Now,there's some REAL take-down power, too!

I've got 2 on my HD, but don't have the url handy to post-up.

Here's another .mpeg I found of a Humvee full of Army soldiers checking out near-by mortar fire in Afghanistan: http://oregonstate.edu/~voilsb/media/Afghanistan.mpg (http://oregonstate.edu/~voilsb/media/Afghanistan.mpg) .

I'm wondering #1) How soldiers get away with having video-cameras on missions like this and #2) How they get get-away with posting it on the www like this.
