This picture was taken by a soldier in Afghanistan of a hero rescue mission.   The pilot is a PA Guard guy who flies EMS choppers in civilian life.   Now how many people on the planet do you reckon could set the ass end of a chopper down on the roof top of a shack on a steep mountain cliff and hold it there while soldiers load wounded men in the rear ???

    If this does not empress you ... nothing ever will. 

Gives me the chills and a serious case of vertigo... I can't imagine having the nerve ... much less the talent and ability ...
