'Black Hawk down' relic comes home to Fayetteville
http://fayobserver.com/articles/2013/10/04/1287146?sac=fo.home
"Exactly 20 years after the fierce battle that inspired the book and movie "Black Hawk Down,'' a piece of history from that notorious firefight has come home.
A twisted, splintered rotor hub from the first helicopter shot down over the Somali capital of Mogadishu on Oct. 3, 1993, is now at the Airborne & Special Operations Museum in downtown Fayetteville.........."
Pretty interesting story on how it got to be there.
Of course we'll have to wait to see it..........
