Air Power...

Cobra Gunships are called in...

Jet Fighter air strikes are called in

The first air strike...

Fighter Jets arrive on the scene. It was an awesome sight as they came in low on the horizon and blasted the enemy...

Under enemy fire, we were ordered to move back for the airstrikes...

A second air strike is called in...

Dedicated to those who died that day
