Afghan Helo Rescue

Gives you the chills and a serious case of the vertigo ... can't even imagine having the nerve ... much less the talent and ability to set the back end of a chopper down on the roof top of a shack on a steep mountain cliff and hold it there while soldiers load wounded men in the rear. 

Pilot is a PA Nat'l Guard guy who flies EMS chopers in civilian life.  

God Bless our military!!!!!

That's a great piece of flying. They can also set the tail down in the water.
