  • On August 6/2011, a CH-47D Chinook helicopter operating with the call sign Extortion 17 was shot down while transporting Quick Reaction Force attempting to reinforce a Joint Special Operations Command unit of the 75th Ranger Regiment in the Tangi Valley in Maidan Wardak Province, southwest of Kabul, Afghanistan. The resulting crash killed all 38 people on board.

    15 U.S. Navy SEALs from the Naval Special Warfare Development Group
    7 Afghan National Army Commandos, part of Afghan National Army
    5 U.S. Naval Special Warfare support personnel.
    3 U.S. Army Reserve personnel from the 7th Battalion, 158th Aviation Regiment
    2 U.S. Navy SEALs from a west coast based SEAL team.
    2 U.S. Army personnel from the 2nd Battalion, 135th Aviation Regiment, part of Colorado Army National Guard
    2 U.S. Air Force Pararescuemen from the 24th Special Tactics Squadron
    1 U.S. Air Force Combat Controller from the 24th Special Tactics Squadron
    1 Afghan civilian interpreter

    At 31 American military personnel killed, the shoot down of Extortion 17 represents the greatest single-incident loss of American lives in Operation Enduring Freedom-Afghanistan.
    In memory of those who
    Lived the good life
    Fought the good fight
    And made the ultimate sacrifice
    MAY WE NEVER FORGET~LLTB🇺🇸🔱🐸

    I remember when that happened. I was at FOB Shank, went out on the recovery mission. It was definitely a bad day for all. After this, they changed the name of the Night Stalker DFAC to the Hero DFAC. When we walked in through the main door down the hallway to get to the chow line, the walls on both sides were lined with pictures of these brave warriors. I'll never forget seeing all of these faces every time I would go in to eat.
    RIP Extortion-17.

    I knew 10 of the Team guys on that bird. This was one of the hardest for myself and a lot of others who knew these men. Attending 10 funerals in the span of a week and then the NSW memorial in Va Beach was overwhelmingly unbearable. Walking among the pictures of my friends, knowing I would never see their faces, hear their laughs, see them smiling or dealing with their endless shenanigans was by far, the hardest time of my life.
