Steve and I take a moment to honor the 38 men that were killed August 6th when their Chinook helicopter was shot down earlier this week.
Thirty US troops and 8 Afghans gave the utmost gift, their lives. Among those who gave their lives were many Navy Seals from Seal Team 6. We honor each and every member of the group who were aboard and honorably gave the ultimate sacrifice. We also know also that one dog and his trainer, John Douangdara were aboard. We have listed as many of the men as we were able to locate.
