The now infamous peace-keeping mission in Somalia, now commonly known as 'Black Hawk Down' through the smash-hit film, took place back in 1993, and was a pivotal point for the US military.
This documentary tells the true story of what actually happened, by the serviceman that actually took part, in what was supposed to be a quick 'in & out' mission.

    That’s only noise to folks who don’t have the boots on the ground knowledge. Kinda like when you’re in school and you’re being taught algebra. “What do I need to know this for?” Then as we go through life we realize that we should have paid attention to what our parents were trying to get through to us. Control the food, you control the world. Difficult concept to get through to a society that had a 40% obesity rate, where our children can turn their noses up to the food on their plates vs these children will eat the bark off a tree to stave off hunger pains.

    That's fine, but what people don't understand was that the Rangers were flawless and superior. They accomplished everything within 30 minutes. Then the helicopter was shot down. Then the second bird was shot down. And the missions changed. Today in Ranger school, part of the training includes scenarios such as Somali where US helicopters need security and rescue. These guys expected to be back in an hour. Foolishly, to lighten their load, some Rangers had little water in their canteens. Lessons learned.

But the idiots running the show, right above your rank, they went to college and are super afraid to make any decisions because they care more about their careers after the military than they do the kids they’re supposed to be leading. The military is 100% ran by these idiots, do not join, it is nothing like you imagine. The bravest of the brave are always being told what to do by a bunch of cowards. And that’s why I got out as fast as I could, it doesn’t take a genius to figure that out.

Without the contributions of the Malaysian APCs which rescue them and brought the soldiers (including the bodies of those killed) back to safety, the American soldiers would have been doomed in the streets of Mogadishu. Btw yes we did make our own movie telling the exact situation during the rescue of the trapped Americans. To give justice to those involved that day and tell it as it was, our own movie titled Malbatt: Misi Bakara (Malbatt: Bakara Mission) continued from the scene in the movie BHD where the US General requested the help of the UN Peacekeepers in Mogadishu.

    In that era, they just always cheered for death. Ours, their own countrymen, their own child…they were subject to a spooky mass hysteria that just made them like sharks when blood was shed. They didn’t need un peacekeepings and humanitarian aid. They needed an exorcist on a mass scale. The idea that people can go crazy by nations was the scariest thing I learned watching news of Somalia as a kid. I never forget that if it could happen there it can happen everywhere, and I’ve sometimes felt we are experiencing it ourselves the last 5-7 years. God have mercy on us all.

Those people still suffering from the destruction of their country. Power outages, no air conditioning and it's 128 degrees. They injure and kill more people than those helped.

    As their neighboring African brothers suggest, natural born thieves and liars, nothing ever changes in Somalia, not for lack of outside effort, but because of Somalis. I know this sounds harsh, truth usually is. What person uses food to buy guns to create more poverty and more starvation. They weren't killing for food, they were killing to take the food and sell it. 20 yeats later, poverty, drought amd starvation still run rampant in somalia, as do pairates, gun and arms deals May God have pity on their souls.

    I was a medic with the British Forces for 25 years, and something resonated with me listening to this towards the end. One interviewee (the colonel) the enemy realised if they could defeat the technology, the American will could be broken, then you have a chance. I saw this for myself in afghanistan. One particular incident at the hospital after a roadside bomb lit up a patrol convoy. Horrific injuries, multiples of such. One American soldier was essentially just a torso, no legs, arms. The helicopters landed at the hospital and the american medical team who was on shift...its difficult to describe but they just couldnt function for the grief! They had to be relieved and the British team who had just gone to bed after their shift was stood back up to deal with the incident. I found this incident a profound realisation. Many times that same team had dealt with horrific injurys to afghan and allied forces out there during that tour, but when it was their people, they became non functional, catatonic, unable to process. We spoke of this for months after amongst ourselves, bringing it up with the Americans would mean a very angry exchange soon after. The American commander of the mission was a Colonel Heller if my memory serves, he went home in the days after the incident, i suppose he had some questions to answer for his superiors, and for himself. Such a deflating realisation, for many of us fighting to save lives alongside that team after this.

    I am a retired police officer from Berlin-Germany and have also experienced what it is like when people try to intervene in an operation who have no idea whatsoever. But this had reached a level that was incredibly, simply incredibly stupid and inconsiderate towards the soldiers. The strongest army in the world had to rely on the help of others because it had been deprived of all opportunities to use force at a certain moment. The forces deployed were simply allowed to die. What would have happened if the support of tanks and transport vehicles from others had not been provided? Many more wooden crosses should have been erected. The original recordings are almost unbearable today, just as they were back then. My only thought was how are the boys going to get out of there and are they even going to get out? An operation never ends the way it was actually planned, you had the feeling that there was no plan B, rather quick in quick out, it always works that way. The result is known. Great respect for the boys and never let yourself get burned like that again. You people are not chess pieces that can be replaced at will.

    You bring up a good point. And in Iraq and afghanistan we saw it a few times. Its sad, but people have a saturation point no matter the experience and training. You'll see this in fights occasionally also. Its not a cowardice or anything like that for the medical and guys in the first. They'll freeze, I likened to a cpu if you tried opening everything at once. Youll get that working on it icon in the screen. After a bit of time itll get everything open, but until that clicking or typing doesn't respond. As a medic for so long you probably know how much this fight changed a lot of stuff, but a ton of medical. This got us more medical training across our whole military. But things like cat tourniquets, combat gauze or hemostatic bandages, and the IFAK trauma kits everyone has. This gear helped establish that golden hour, theres a lot more to it, but with the guys fighting now much better trained and equipped to stabilize casualties to get them to a field hospital. In the beginning We sent guys out from our teams that had injuries that were not survivable in our eyes. Missing multiple limbs or arterial lacerations we'd all make sure to say goodbye to them. The first time we saw one that bad live it was stunning, as things progressed it was not uncommon see this. But I still remember vividly that first time we saw our buddy alive. I still tear up thinking about it 😊

    I don't think the soldiers fought and died in vain! They fought for a good cause and to protect each other, to stand side by side, back to back! And they can be proud of that. I think that few countries are willing to sacrifice their soldiers for another country. We will never experience the massive sacrifice like on D-Day in the Second World War again. Respect for all the soldiers who died in Mogadishu to give their comrades a chance to survive! God bless you and rest in peace! 🙏🏻

    Of course they died in vain. They were very brave but the politicians wasted their lives for nothing. The US had no vital interests at stake in Somalia's civil war. Good leaders only risk the lives of soldiers when it is necessary to defend the country.

    A civil war doesn’t include starving hundreds of thousands of people. I can tell you right now, aside from the shit political decisions that cost the lives of some good men, that many people I served with would have made the same decision to fight and attempt to restore some civility for the sake of opening the food lines to innocent men, women and especially children that were being starved to death. None of us signed with any caveats being that we’d only fight certain types of wars. We might have been ignorant to the fact that politicians make trash decisions that took the lives of far too many soldiers but nonetheless we can’t sit idly by whilst watching hundreds of thousands of innocent people die of starvation.

    I think what we can all learn from this is that America needs to worry about us. We need to quit sticking our noses into everyone's else's business. We need to worry about our borders and citizens first. If someone presents a threat and needs dealt with, we roll in hard and heavy with over whelming numbers do the mission get on a plane and leave.

    One has to ask. Why did anyone bother about the situation in Somalia! Could it be the billions or trillions of dollars of trade passing just off the coast, going up to the Suez canal( which now has an international force, trying to control Somalian , so called pirates, composed of mainly:ex fisherman, whose lively hoods have been stolen by foreign countries fishing fleets!)?!. The international community, never got involved in Rwanda, where millions were murdered!! Trade is more important than lives? The UN and America, got sucked in yet again!!. ?

    I am not a veteran, but almost every generation of my family served in just about every war this nation has fought. I believe the Mexican war and Desert Storm are the only two without any family in uniform. We have a "rule" that is, no talk of combat at the table during the holidays. And Vietnam is the one we NEVER even mention at any time period. Four of my uncles enlisted to go to that insane, and most savage war our country fought. But to compare wars is just useless. All war is savage, and it changes men and women as well. All four came home intact physically. Mentally, well , not so much. Uncle Danny took his life in 1991. He was Air Force and everyone thought he never saw combat. Turns out he did. Hand to hand combat with V.C. and N.V.A. sappers breaking through the wire at night. Almost five nights a week. Killing a man with a knife or your hands is about as intimate it can get. I am grateful I never had to do that.
