+1 ---Since this is "your" site, I've kept quiet. In this case though, the BW bashing is not warranted. The BW pilots are mostly 160th guys, the very Army pilots we all love when it gets brown. I know a lot of them, like the guy who flew Kurt Muse out of Modelo prison and got seriously wounded. - he works for BW. They fly because they are wanted and needed, not because of politics. They are veterans like the rest of here. Patriotic Americans. And I guarantee it IS about finding another way to keep serving after you retire and not about making money. You spend 30 years defending the country and find a way to keep serving - that's what you know. That's what you still want to do.
In this case they were readily available and the mil forces were not. It was a "I need it now" not, "let's think about making a political statement" situation. And yes I have accurate information, not what you read in the press.
Team SGT, why do you hate BW so much? I really have a hard time understanding your point of view.
