We started this deployment in Mar 2009, arrived in Iraq in jun 2009. We started out not having any problems what so ever, making it almost a yr with no casualties. On 21 Feb 2010, we had 2 of our finest pilots that lost their lives in northern Iraq when their aircraft made a hard landing. We will be having a ceremony here for them before we leave here. All i ask is that we keep them and their families in their prayers, was told everything went quick, so no pain was felt. Here is the link to what lil story that is being told to the press.
