There’s a lot of bravery here but I want to highlight someone specifically another Air Force man named Jason Cunningham he was a pararescueman new guy. Jason was on the helicopter that landed with the rangers and began treating wounded on the impact basically. He was shooting, moving wounded to safer positions, shooting some more to go grab another wounded guy take them to cover he did this nonstop even when he himself was wounded. He then realized he was hit and the ranger medic wanted to treat him he refused medical care and continued to fight and take care of his patients. At the end of the battle he was exhausted and bleeding out his eyes were fading and 30 minutes before extract he fell asleep never to wake up again. For his actions he was awarded the Air Force Cross. The team leader also received the Medal of Honor the entire SEAL team had Navy Crosses unknown amount of bronze stars with a V for Valor and Silver Stars with V for Valor and most men got Purple Hearts which indicates you are wounded. Let’s just say it was hard to not award every man a MoH bc they all fought like enraged animals on Roberts Ridge. God bless them all🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

In the Bible John 15:13 "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends". When a loved one is handed a folded flag it usually represents the sacrifice the service person has given. Until you have been handed a folded flag you only wonder what the family is feeling. RIP John Chapman God Bless America.

The plan was for MAKO 30, the SEAL team Chapman was assigned to, to take the summit of Takur Ghar as an observation point. Razor 03 was suppose to insert the team but took hits from RPGs and heavy machine gun as it was landing. As Razor 03 was taking off after it got hit, Neil Roberts reportedly was shot and fell out the back of the helo. The crew chief tried to grab Roberts but he himself was pulled out and lost his grip on Roberts and Roberts fell. The crew chief was tethered so he ended up dangling below the helo while the pilot was struggling to fly the damaged aircraft. The aircraft lost all control 3 times due to loss of hydraulic fluid, but the pilot was able to regain control each time. Razor 03 eventually crashed land several miles away. Razor 03's wingman, Razor 04, linked up with the team and took them back up to the mountain to rescue Roberts and that's where this footage picks up. A lot of things went wrong that morning.

Not to take anything away from Chapman's courageous action but I have to wonder why, instead of engaging bunker #2, the team didn't fall back to cover and call for fire support from the Spectre gunship as soon as they discovered the SEAL was dead. Those gunships can deliver remarkably accurate, devastating fire.
