Somalia, 1993: Two Delta Force snipers volunteered to rescue a Black Hawk crew surrounded by militants. They knew the odds, but went in anyway.

This is the true story of Medal of Honor recipients Master Sgt. Gary Gordon (L) and Sfc. Randy Shughart (R). 🧵 Master Sgt. Gary Gordon
Sfc. Randy Shughart
@MohMuseum @CMOH_Society Two @USASOCNews Black Hawk helicopters were shot down in hostile territory during a raid to capture a Somali warlord’s top lieutenants.

One crash site had four survivors, but no ground support was coming.

Gordon and Shughart were determined to help. A map of the crash sites.
The snipers requested permission to go in and support the second crash site. With hordes of militants surrounding the area, Command said ‘no,’ twice, it was too dangerous.

Unfazed, Gordon and Shughart asked again to enter. This time, Command approved.

Gordon and Shughart knew they’d be outnumbered, but that didn't stop them.

The M10 Booker is NOT a tank, but it's still lethal. 💥

The armored infantry support vehicle, is currently being tested at U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground.

🔗 army.mil/article/283010The M10’s main weapon is a M35 105mm low-recoil tank gun, significantly larger than the 25mm chain gun on the Bradley, and also boasts a 12.7mm M2 heavy machine gun and 7.62 mm Coax machine gun. The platform’s diesel engine puts out 800 horsepower and can power it up to 40 miles per hour. (U.S. Army photo by Mark Schauer)
Here's some info on the two Soldiers the Booker was named after....

The vehicle platform honors two enlisted Army Soldiers who served our nation selflessly during times of great conflict – Medal of Honor recipient Pvt. Robert D. Booker, who perished in World War II, and Distinguished Service Cross recipient Staff Sgt. Stevon A. Booker, who died from injuries sustained in Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Rest in peace, Soldier. You led, 'The Good Life."

#TonyBennett, who died today at age 96, was a #USArmy veteran. We salute his service to the Nation and his iconic career as a singer.

We continue The Story of Old Abe.

Many newspapers and Veterans groups wondered aloud "what would become of this famous, flesh and blood war relic?"
Upon his death, "Old Abe" was preserved and exhibited in the Capitol building's Grand Army of the Republic Memorial Hall until a fire destroyed the display in 1904.

Sadly, only a few of his feathers survived, carefully preserved by the Wisconsin Veterans' Museum in Madison.
Today, large sculptures of "Old Abe" stand atop the Wisconsin monument at Vicksburg, Miss., and atop the entrance to old Camp Randall, now the main entrance to the University of Wisconsin's football stadium.
