3-17 in Afghanistan flying Colors in 2010
I just read Scouts Out!, a story of 3/17 in Afghanistan flying the OH58D Kiowa Warrior and the painful end of 3/17 and the Kiowa*. I’m sure everyone has seen it. I just wanted to say I enjoyed it, identified with many of the frustrations he describes, and even got a bit teary at the end. It reinforced for me that despite it’s limitations, I was proud to fly an OH58A Kiowa for 3/17. Thank you all for the privilege.
