my boos, and best friend, unknown to me, listened to some of the "war" stories I have been telling for years and decided to memorialize my friends, and fellow combat veterans who died in a helicopter crash, 29 November 2004, just outside of bruceville eddy texas. CW2 Mark Evans, CW2 David Gardner, and Specialist Rick Brown were my roommates in Iraq 2003-2004 and I was supposed to have went with them the morning of the crash. I guess there is something else for me to do
their story is on Army Air Crews.com listed by date http://www.armyaircrews.com/blackhawk.html

Yea we didnt get much of a welcome home back then. I've aways supported our military troops just abhor the corporate/banksters interests that put them in harms way, hoping that will one day change. On a more positive note would be interested in your version of the forward tilt hood planning this on my burb build.

about the only difference in what LFD did and mine was that I fully welded everything, and eliminated the "risers" for the hinge to hood.

Re: enjoy the carshow build
 
thanks guys for following along. If you have any questions about how and what I did to make it happen, please ask.

I know I went kinda fast on posting all of the 6 years of work that went into the build, forgive me for that, I didn't want to post while it was happening due to the fact I could possibly deploy overseas on a 5 day notice.

thanks again
