This Is What I Consider Impressive



If you don't think our military pilots earn their pay ... you need to take a look at this picture ... and then look again and realize what you're seeing.

This photo was taken by a soldier in Afghanistan of a helo rescue mission. The pilot is a PA Guard guy who flies EMS choppers in civilian life. Now how many people on the planet you reckon could set the ass end of a chopper hovering over the roof top of a shack on a steep mountain cliff and hold it there while soldiers load wounded men in the rear??? P.S. Look again and notice where the treeline is…



If this does not impress you...nothing ever will. God Bless our military!!!!!

As I understand it,just trying to fly one of those helos is like walking a tightrope & juggling at the same time..with an eye patch over one eye.
