re: #63 Escaped Hillbilly

Um, Black Hawk down was not only based on a true story, it is pretty accurate. Most Aviation units and nearly all Special Forces, are mostly white. Infantry seems about half white, nearly half black, rest hispanic with only a smattering of other races. If you care. It wasn’t racist, but people tend to migrate to certain career fields where they are surrounded by like minded people.

One bit of artistic license the filmmakers took was to put the rangers’ names on their helmets, so the audience could tell them apart better. I gather that they don’t do that in the real Rangers.
