And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Are we sure its an Apache? Several reasons: 1. The age of the photo, looks like late 70's or early 80's. The army didn't adopt the Apache until I think 86. 2. I have never seen the US military use this camo pattern on an Apache, a partner country maybe? 3. Distinct bump above the intakes making the rotor sit higher than on an Apache. Hard to tell in this photo (because it is well camouflaged) but this looks like Afghanistan so I was thinking Russian during their Afghan War.
Not too difficult.
ReplyDeleteFlying, landed or crashed?.....would be a help!
ReplyDeleteDead center of the photo. It's an Apache AH 64. Brilliant.

Not a Apache. That is a Italian Agusta A129 Mangusta.
