i finally watched argo. it was really good until i made the mistake of reading about the real-life events afterwards.
Ya, I just read a first hand account from a Delta team member about how they mumped that all up with the helicopters and so forth, or they would have snatched those fuckers out of there.
True story, the botched Iranian embassy mission was Delta Force's first mission after their creation, but ZERO of the eff up was theirs...rough ridin' navy helicopter ran into a C130 tanker plane in a sandstorm while hovering after it refueled.
