摘要

Rangers and Delta Force faced an onslaught of gunfire as they approached the crashed Black Hawk helicopter on the afternoon of Oct. 3, 1993. The soldiers dashed for cover along the streets of Mogadishu, Somalia, where they would spend the night securing the crash site. In need of medicine and ammunition, another Black Hawk arrived, hovering low as aircrew kicked out cases of supplies. Helicopter door gunners opened up with 7.62mm miniguns, and were met with fire from below. "It was the first time I had ever heard miniguns being drowned out because there was so much ground fire from AKs up to that helicopter," retired Command Sgt. Maj. Chris Faris, a Delta Force veteran, told Army Times. "That was the first time we realized how many people were actually around us." Faris, who went on to serve as the top enlisted soldier for the secretive Joint Special Operations Command, is among 60 soldiers receiving new awards for the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu. The awards came after former Secretary of the Army Ryan McCarthy ordered a review last fall.
