Right...
There have been a number of helicopter crashes in this war, the hunt for bin Laden, and others.

I heard on the news that this helicopter crash was not because of "hostile fire", but because of the age of this type of helicopter...they are looking into "upgrading" this type of "transport chopper."

Umm...hello??? It's 2003 and we are using some "old" machinery and engineering? We have the latest bombs, missiles, etc...but don't have the latest equipment that CARRIES HUMANS/LIFE on board? Am I missing something?

We only seem to learn AFTER making mistakes...urrgghhh.
