With Rangers and Delta Force surrounded in the city of Mogadishu, a combined force of Americans, Malaysians and Pakistanis attempt an armoured assault into the city to rescue them before they run out of ammunition and water. The 160th SOAR continue their heroic work holding the city back, and resupplying their men on the ground.

Chad Malaysian Peacekeepers
Yeah those Malaysian boys have my respect. That's how you stay cool when the world is turning head over heels around you.
That one hit me hard. I couldn't believe a man from a different country would do that for them. Mad respect
@@garrisyounguns6116 of course they would, we’re allies. I’d do that for my friends and they would do that for me.
The Americans were grateful for the help that the Malaysians gave during this battle. And it showed in the assistance that the Malaysian military received from them after that, both formally and informally. Military to military, the Americans had a long memory and never forgot what we did for them.
WE NEVER FORGET.THANKS AGAIN.
Help the average American, and they'll likely remember that shit forever. Just don't pay much attention to those vocal minorities that get huffy about being helped, or the like. I still recall people who have helped me decades later. There are people that remember me from nearly a decade ago purely by the sound of my voice and the rumble of my vehicle's engine.
Context: Out-of-towners stranded in the middle of nowhere. Cougar country, bear country, venomous snake country. The whole shebang. Car's outta gas, its X-mas Eve. I come rumbling through, and note the vehicle sitting there with four people walking around it. Stop, ask what's up. "Outta gas". "If you got money, I'll take you to the nearby gas station" "N-no, that's alright, thanks, though!" Clearly, don't trust a stranger offering help. Good instinct, honestly. Better safe than sorry.
So, I decide to mosey up the road... Feel bad that I couldn't help 'em... So, fuck it. Go to the station, fill the gas can with $40 of fuel, skitter on back. Turns out, they only needed about half of the fuel to fill the tank, but... Hey, they got to get going on to their X-Mas party, and I got to go home feelin' good. Never got my name, never got their's. I get back from a 5-year journey in Europe, and as I drive into a gas station, a group of four wander up and ask me if I'm that same guy that helped 'em.
S'good, wholesome stuff.
@@MrJinglejanglejingle wow that's quite a story...
TIL Malaysia has a military
Help well earned. Speaking for myself as someone who is a complete outsider having never served in the military, I won’t forget. By my estimation the US should have plenty of help to offer you as long as you want it seeing as how they offer it to people who haven’t saved any of our guys before.
RPG ricocheted the APC's roof.

The Malaysians, though questioned at first, ending up being total heroes during the operation and never backed down. Forever indebted to them for their assistance. ❤ 💙
I can't stand racist and judgemental comments like this. Why would you question a unit just because they are Malaysian? Would you make a comment like this if they were British or American? Learn to respect people from all races and backgrounds please

@UCv7k1AWt_MM4srXHZhHgUNw shut the fuck up loser. The Malaysians are questioned because they’re not at all known for military skill and experience.

Thank God your political leadership knew enough to give your commanders the armored vehicles. In the US basically every time a military mission goes to hell its due to politics the American commanders had requested armor and Apache attack helicopters but were denied those Blackhawks should never have been hovering providing fire support something a transport helicopter wasn’t designed for typical bullshit
That is Holywood for you my bro.

It's all trumps fault nowadays.

2021: You leave billions of dollars worth of military hardware to the enemy , make some feeble attempts to slightly damage it , most of it repairable within days if not hours.
I wish we got back to training battlefield warriors instead of endless SHARP and gender equality training modules.
The military leadership is too fixated on politics of wokism to be bothered with actually training troops in warfighting.
As a Pakistani I'm glad Pakistani and the Malay troops are getting mentioned, Also loved how the Americans were proven wrong against the Malaysians; "No we stay" Absolute chad Malay soldier.
Killing fellow Muslim and kissing American ass wow
"Drive slow so the soldiers can use our vehicles as cover"
NO NO WE GO

@@doozledorf7036 after their mission done? Lol.. n what drive slowly so those injured die a slow n painful death? What a clown... so now the we malaysian need to clean up all ur messed? Dude we lost 4 vics of taxpayer's money n 1 personel just to save ur incompetent asses.. this all shits show wouldn't even happen if u guys really good at what u did.. come grovelling ur asses into our camps n yet still had the audacity to question the competent of the malaysians..
@@doozledorf7036 Okey that got good rolf out from me, but to be fair in such cluster fuck, getting fired all around and with rpg's slowing down more than that would give Somalis easy targets and more vehicles would be lost, with more casualties than already happened. While i sympathize with already exhausted troops needing to do mad dash to safety, in the end it was safer for everyone just run than risk more vehicles and troops and what possibly worse, total road block from destroyed vehicle halting whole column. In the end it was the right call and would have done the same, since if there was such issue of some getting pinned down, tanks and couple apc's could be turned around in less hot position and go get them, rather than risk whole column like that.
@@Hellsong89 don’t waste your time explaining, they lack basic common sense to start with soo you’re just wasting your time or they are just internet trolls
As a southern neighbor of Malaysia, I salute the bravery and effort of the Malaysian convoy troops in this fight. Salutes 👍👍
The Malaysians truly were badass, called out of the blue to perform a dangerous mission and still get the job done courageously.
“Let the footsoldiers use our vehicles as cover”
No no! WE GO!!
“Courageous”
But they couldn't stay longer at the general aidid area😂
@@doozledorf7036 said the 1 who grovel for helps
The Malaysians and Pakistanis like U.S. forces were all part of a joint intervening force through the United Nations. They were not called out of the blue as you stayed they were already there like all other forces.
@@doozledorf7036major Jeff struecker (the U.S. army officer) himself told his side of story and mentioned that he and the rest of the convoy didn’t know how many are alive, how many are wounded and how many are dead. He saw 20 or so men running towards his humvee when he was withdrawing and he told his men to just hose them since he thought they were enemies chasing them. Turns out it was the left-behind us troops. And he proceeded to take as many as he can with them on the humvee, with still left 10 men or so on foot.
So what the f are you talking about? Even the us army didn’t know there are still men that was left behind and you’re yapping about Malaysians troops that clearly did their mission successfully.
Noticed you didn’t have nothing else to say either except commenting the same bs over and over again.
Mf you talk like you have been to mogadishu fighting the battle when you’re just a hateful little coward😢.
As a Malaysian, I'm so happy you got to showcase the bravery of the soldiers from my country, and the UN Forces as a whole. It frustrated me how my country's men would get forgotten and overshadowed by the greater US forces *ahem with a certain movie especially ahem* so it is nice to see this being a different case. Well done on such an amazing video!
you are right Malaysians an Pakistanis are an afterthought here in the US. We always believe we are the only ones fighting the bad guys
It frustrates me and amazes me how the americans can call in to question the competence of there allies, not to mention the sweet irony of that one Sgt Goodell that wanted to run.
So you want a alternate history movie by American Hollywood to stroke your ego?
@Dani Al but the conflict started when aidid and the boys seize the UN aids that were send to helps somalia's people from starvation
@Dani Al Not proud, but embarrassed that our fellow Muslims got involved in civil wars neglecting all the teachings by the Prophet saw, that the civilians had to be the greatest casualties because of the greeds of the so-called Muslim leaders in Somalia at the time. So much so for claiming to be Muslims.
"no no, we stay"
Best line i've ever heard
As a reserve officer, i feel proud serving my country (Malaysia). "No, no we stay"
If you guys were wondering about the competency of Malaysian troops during the Battle of Mogadishu. Just so you know. That was 1993. In 1989, Malaysian troops defeated a Communist Insurgency that lasted almost 30 years. Our troops were battle hardened at that point after more than 30 years of fighting rebels and foreign infiltrators
Thanks for the comment, I learned something new today :)

As so many have said, I'm in awe at the quality and depth of this. It's also so reassuring and humbling to see the Malaysian relief forces rightfully honoured.
Malaysian here. What a riveting story! "No no, we stay!" should be the title of a remake. If any Hollywood producer want to do this, you can bet on it that the Malaysian Government would be happy to provide full assistance with actors and soldiers speaking authentic Malay.

So much of my late teens: the movie, the game, is coming back to me
The unsung heroes of this op is def the Malaysians. First having your competence questioned, then seeing one of your numbers dying, and then still turn around to say: "No no, we stay". Wish they could have paid tribute to that in the movie
But then not allowing the retreating ON FOOT troops to use your vehicles as cover completely ruined it imo. They’re getting too much credit in these comments...

@D. Lindsay they left them behind because the seats are full of wounded people and dead bodies . U clearly ignorant about these .

No, no! We stay. As a Malaysian, I'm very proud of our warrior.
“No we stay” amazing
USAF Pararescue PJs never get enough credit, they are Tier 2 (and tier 1) special operators who are all qualified advanced paramedics and trauma specialists, they shoot like a seal, jump like an airborne ranger and sew you up like a surgeon. There were there that day as awell

They are like well armed flying doctors, I remembered one of our guys gets casevaced and these PJ guys will treat the wounded and get them the hell out

I didn't think the actual battle was more hectic and grisly than the film, but your video shows otherwise. Also, I appreciated learning more about the bravery of the UN Peacekeepers, which were barely depicted in the US-centric movie.
Watch this instead of just movie and listen from both US and Somali fighters
ruclips.net/video/lPMtgaqn7b8/видео.html
It did not take out the credit from the UN at all. No matter how you see it, without the UN, the US forces would've suffered much more, or even wiped out eventually. They even include the part where the driver decides to stay despite the ranger's complains.
"No no we stay" even hit by rpg what a badass soldier... thanks to the Malaysian and Pakistani troops and the United Nations.
I'm from Malaysia. Proud of the armed forces for being part of the rescue mission.
Hello Fellow Malaysian... Stay safe, stay healthy, keep SOP and have a good day to you...
As Somali are you proud for fighting fellow Muslims ? I am your brother not them and they are not grateful to you . If you watch the movie , they don’t even mention the Malaysians and Pakistans and insulted your troops capabilities

@@Internut1985 they did mention them but you were too busy being a brainwashed extremist
@@Internut1985 as a Malaysian, i am extremely proud for that fact actually. That's what you'll get for having a leader who actively tries to steal from the starving. Your leader followed ZERO Muslim values, a radical who deserves hell. Call yourself that while having your soldiers mutilating the dead as a sign of disrespect and I'll laugh.
Worth mentioning the prelude that took place four months earlier in the same premises, when officers of a Moroccan detachment were shot down by snipers and the troops had to be extracted by a French unit under colonel de Sannes. It is entirely possible that lessons were learned by the Somali militias back then.
Is there anyway i can learn more about this?
Desire to know more intensifies
A few days before, on Sep 25th, we had a Blackhawk shot down by the SNA, in the same part of the city, using the same tactics. I was present both nights, 10th Mountain QRF, and though on a smaller scale, it was every bit of an intense fight. We suffered 3 KIA and multiple wounded that night. That night should have raised larger flags than it did.
@@wshivers72 oh my, that’s really news to me! A helo was shot down a few days before and no one thought it was risky? Allegedly I saw in one of the old discovery channel documentaries that bin laden’s forces “taught” the militiamen how to shoot down helicopters using RPGs, but this has not been fully substantiated.
@@ayu1978 there has been talk of that over the years as well. 1 Aug 93, just a few days after my unit arrived in Mogadishu, a HMMWV was hit with and IED buried in the road, killing all three in the vehicle. This was a first for Mogadishu, causing us to change our tactics and the Main Supply Route.
As a Pakistani American I am happy to learn that these militaries can work together for a common goal.
People can and will work together in unison.. its the globalists who want to divide us and are behind every major conflict in past two centuries at least in human history.

This operation goes to show that sometimes as special as a special operators or special forces are, when the operation went sideways and men are getting killed, they will always need a Quick Reaction Force from normal troops outside their command jurisdiction, because sometimes they have heavier firepower and vehicles to get the SF or SOF guys out.
@@RFXCasey The original plan called for tanks and heavily armored vehicles but it was denied, and dude that denied it in the government resigned…
@@Localjadedealer that’s the problem, if they let the guys that actually do the fighting make the decisions we would have way fewer screw ups
Special forces are just normal men, they aren't supermen, just normal men conditioned to top condition
@@danielschmidt7153 The largest part in their training & success is their mental toughness. Many 'normal' infantrymen and military men that tryout for special forces units are all well conditioned physically, or else they'd be denied just from a first glance. The low acceptance rates is because the one's that make it through went above and beyond the pain and physical and mental torture that the selection process is made to weed out. That is why they're given the high risk and covert missions that can't always depend on a large force to complete because it would attract a lot more attention, take a lot more time to plan and take action, etc. This is why they're viewed by the civilian public, and also by many others in the military as 'superheroes'. They also gain exponentially more combat experience than a 'regular' infantryman in the Marines or Army. They may take on 1 or more high risk missions in a single night, night after night. That gives them the luxury of also working alongside the best of the best, whether it be Air Force helicopter pilots, Army Rangers, Air Force Combat Controllers & Pararescue's, etc.
What an excellent video. Kudos for the attention to detail. As someone who studied this battle after having watched the movie when I was a teenager, I always found it wrong that the bravery of the Malaysians were not included. Thanks for giving me the same goosebumps as when I first read those words: "No no, we stay."

Interesting tidbit: The Malay contingent were made up of members from the 21st Special Service Group (GGK) who, prior to Mogadishu, have had experience in the Balkans, and squashing a communist insurrection in their country, among other things.
Aaaand we have a background feud with the Italians since...
Main force is the 19th Royal Malay Regiment (Mechanized). GGK is usually quietly slipped in for peacekeeping duties, just in case things turn sour, like in this instance..
Just like America, we love to kick the commies

The Malaysian and Pakistani forces played such a big role in the rescue effort, yet they were left out in Ridley Scott's movie, what a shame, as many people, myself included, thought that was pretty much the whole story. Thank you for the video.
Malay and Pakistan troops getting some coverage. Good to see.
I really look forward to these videos. Soon as I see a new one uploaded I get childishly excited. The steady and flat narration really helps as it avoids mawkishness or any attempts to steer the narrative in a direction and instead allows you to make your own mind up. Very important. Personally, I learn a lot more when I can see as well as hear the information. Great stuff.
I too rush to watch the newest upload. Makes my day 😙👌
@@SCREWBY92 ,,, s.)!
All i can say
“Terima Kasih”
For telling the truth where most of the American never knew we ever existed during the conflict.
Greetings to all. We Malaysians have been instilled with words of encouragement such as let's sweat but not blood. We are respected by enemies and friends because of this Malay proverb; Do not try to poke a wasp's nest to destroy its people and if we have to fight the enemy; these words become our strength; reeds squeezing the sour until it reaches the base of the arm. Regardless, Malaysia is a security expert under the UN. We love everyone who loves peace. We will return a thousand respects if you respect people around you.
I literally watched the first part last night, and thought, "Well, he should be coming out with Part 2 any time now..." Perfect timing!
My dad was EOD and deployed as a lieutenant during Black Hawk Down. He got PTSD from having to assist in defusing an RPG munition that had implanted into one of our soldier's chest. He had eaten salmon that morning before work, and to this day he can't eat any fish
oh boy that rpg shot was very famous
I think the guy survived too. They made a sandbag bunker outside to remove the RPG in because obviously doing that in the main surgery area wouldn't be smart.

I Love the fact that you highlight the actions of the Pakistani and Malaysian troops. "no, no, we stay" says it all. It's a shame the movie neglects their involvement. These guys were in it as much as the US troops. What an excellent video!
They really weren't though. All together they only lost 1 soldier and they fought for a fraction of the time the US did. Also, they failed to give the soldiers proper cover with their APCs which is inexcusable. They just drove off. People are giving them WAAAAY too much credit here
@@jophussaurus2450 a fraction? the stories ended with help from Malaysians and Pakistani drove and surf into the rpg and bullets rain save the american ass.
While the american apc driver drove into unknown position, you still call it a fraction?
@@jophussaurus2450 19 Americans lost their life and many more would have died if the Pakistani and Malaysian troops didn't help.......maybe show some respect
@@jophussaurus2450yeah and do what? Drive slowly so the wounded inside could bleed to death? Screw off
@@edwardkenway148No one should be praised for doing what is expected, Stfu.
as 33 yes old and watching this now makes alot of sense as to why Americans were in Somalia because i was only 5yrs old when this was happening right around house and my family were very fortunate to escape from this and move to kenya in 94 then came to America and till this day theres still bullet holes in our house which we never thought about fixing it because of how unsafe the country is.. I'm just proud to live here and to have grown up all my life here
Thank you for not giving in to the “when is BHD part two going to be ready?” and putting out a highly quality, well done video. Do you have plans to do something similar with the Benghazi attack by chance?
It was so worth the wait! 👌
40 minutes
soon
Benghazi would be an excellent video topic
Don't release videos this far apart.
Just make them back to back and don't do other videos till u finish... this isn't a great recipe.
Me as Indonesian totally respects our Malaysian cousins for their bravery in this operation.
Terima kasih saudara

I served in the 10th Mountain Division at this time, although I did not deploy to Somalia. It is nice to finally see coverage that shows that the 10th Mountain Division was an active participant in the rescue from this mission. The movie Blackhawk Down didn’t due a very good job of reflecting that reality. Climb To Glory!

Thank you for showcasing the efforts and sacrifices of the Pakistani and Malaysian peacekeepers. They are often overlooked, but not here.
It would have been worth mentioning that the Pakistani tanks couldn’t follow the convoy all the way into the city (to the crash Sites) because the roads and alleys were too narrow for tanks. They had to wait on the highway. They would rejoin the convoy later in heading back to the stadium I believe.

12:02 Locally, Malaysian soldier will said "Agi Idup Agi Ngelaban” meaning keep fighting while still alive.
Thank you for acknowledge their involvement in mission. They are warriors who willing to die for others.
That word was actually in Iban language which originated from the Iban indigenous race on the Borneo side of Malaysia. But tbh, i'm quite surprise you actually know that word. Props to you mate
@@acapraichu4879 Yes. Those words originally from iban & popularized by DT Kanang Langkau. Since he is Malaysian highest decorated hero, Royal Ranger Regiment adopted those phrase as official motto of regiment.

The only Malaysian killed in Somali Corporal Matt Aznan was awarded the highest award in Malaysia, The Grand Knight of Valor. One of her daughters serve in the same battalion in which that her father served til this day.
The battle of Black hawk down was hard impossible they are too many Enemies about 5000 insurgent surrounding the area, the casualties are 19 American soldiers killed, 1 Malaysian special forces killed, 1000 Somali Insurgent killed
I love how our military leaders actually took responsibility for this disaster. Meanwhile, Not one person is willing to take any blame for how we left Afghanistan.
Afgan was a shitshow because someone told the enemy the exact time we are leaving which let them plan everything around it. He happened to be president for 4 years
That's because the guy who negotiated the withdrawal is incapable of taking responsibility for anything
@@calvinware7957ah yes, let’s blame the former administration for the incompetency of the current administration. Trump didn’t get over a dozen troops killed in the withdrawal. Trump didn’t leave behind millions of dollars of sensitive equipment and weapons. Trump didn’t abandon Americans and allies in Afghanistan. That was Biden bruh, all day.

I think we've all been on the edge of our seats waiting for this. Better than the movie, fight me.
My friend uncle is one of the Malaysian army that involves in this battle. Not going to say something bad about the Pakistani army but they fled with their tank when being ask to lead the way. At that night the Malaysian APC condor need to lead the way without any night vision
I am somali and family members fought against American, Pakistani and Malaysian invasion. true patriotism and victory
would love to see the Battle of Najaf (2003) specifically objective jenkins (my company was in a 36 hour firefight).
great video on battle of mogadishu
This sound Good. Its always interesting to hear the opinions from the people that were involved.
And you died?
Which was your company?
"Objective Jenkins" naming the objective after an infamously ill conceived charge sounds like bad juju
@@anarquia201 he was one of the insurgents that escaped
6:25 I remember a documentary where the actual soldiers commented this scene of the movie, they said it was the opposite, they marked the houses where U.S troops were to mark were not to shoot.
I talk from memory, I can be absolutelly wrong but it makes more sense to me.
These are the type of battles that every young soldier hopes they take place in and every older soldier hopes never happens! True brotherhood was shown that day!
We got lucky that Malaysian and Pakistani soldiers were willing to step up, and.....die....to rescue Americans. Thank you. This whole event pisses me off. It was American short sightedness and poor leadership that cost the lives of these brave men. It never ceases to amazing me how the people who makes these choices and get people killed can get away with being incompetent and never suffer what should be legal consequences.
My Mother served in the air force and was deployed to Somalia from August to September of '93. And hell, I'm proud of her.
Now people can start complaining that other episodes haven't been released on a timescale that satisfies them
Thanks for your work in explaining and animating these conflicts, as well as the context.
A few years ago I left a comment on part 1 saying how disappointed I was to not see the other UN troops moving in to help. After that I lost track of this channel and never saw part two.
Now that I have I must say that I'm very glad to see such brave allies coming to help with some even making the ultimate sacrifice.
This was a nightmarish scenario for everyone involved and it's insane to think that now, twenty years later, it's still such a unstable country.
I served in Afghanistan with one of the medics in this group. It’s fair to say he was a bit scarred. Love ya Doc
The movie isn't too far off, but apparently it doesn't give enough credit to the 10th and UN troops.
Like not mentioning non-Americans in the casualty tally at the end.
@@Yora21 It always rubbed me the wrong way, they died a bled to save them too, without them there would have been a much higher casualty rate.
Movie is 95% bs
@@Yora21 Typical US exceptionalism. Especially for anyone not speaking english.
The movie is good for telling the basic story and some of the key details, but its best accomplishment is being able to show the chaos of the battle at the ground level and just how bad things fell apart. If you are looking for accuracy of events read a book, if you want the cliff notes and want to be entertained watch the movie.
Super 66
30 second of receiving incoming fire.
Consider a full magazine of 30 rounds of AK47 or AK74 can be emptied in 3.5 second.
The nerve of steel of that crews
I reckon knowing the guys on the ground have been getting that same treatment for the last few hours had something to do with their persistence. They had to drop their supplies or the guys on the ground might die.
So many heroes in an unnecessary battle. I hope they're all doing better now.
Imagine how shot up the helos were when they returned. Must have looked like a colander.
wow so much more went down on that day than i ever realised, really sad that the film i remember from all those years ago either completely ignored or heavily downplayed the malaysian and pakastani involvement
I never would have imagined that military conflicts could be this chaotic. This video was stressful to watch, it must have been way worse to actually have to fight through it.
History aside, the editing, narration, and animations were on point! Thank you Operations Room!
I am surprised that did not derail more. Driving into a hostile city with millions of people in it with just couple hundred than a couple thousand men sounds extremely challanging.
A Secretary of Defense and a General actually stepping down and taking responsibility.
Those were the days...
The Malaysian involvement has been well mention in this video.... well done sir!

Most anticipated sequel in history
Good to see the extent of the contribution from Malaysian and Pakistani forces in this operation. Also mostly forgotten in this battle, is the contribution of the 10th Mountain.
Best thing about this channel is how calm and collected the battles are being presented
"No no. We stay" thats courage and discipline right there!!!!
Meanwhile Sgt Goodell is the exact opposite of that. I did enjoy the irony of that the americans had the arrogance to question there UN allies, yet it was one of there own that tried to run.
For some reason in the black hawk down movie it's a Pakistani and American having this type of conversation
@@Cipher00007 “Tried to run” lol. The Americans had been fighting for hours... the Malaysians just showed up. You’re bias is showing

Oh, I've been waiting for the sequel. Just rewatched part 1 before going into this and I'm truely amazed at what I've been shown here
The way the story gets told, it sounds like the coalition was just fighting a big uncoordinated mob of guys with guns and rpgs. It would be interesting to know more about the Somali militia perspective of this engagement, especially their organization, command & control decision process, and what intel they had available about coalition movements.
In part 1, it was alluded that aidid was actually a competent commander and his strategy was to lure them into the heart of the city and cause them to take casualties.
Read All Secure by Tom Satterly.
@@Tiro_Chopper Tom Satterly ex Delta who fought in this battle, mentions about the military educational background in Russia from some of Aidid men. It is belived they did place some sort of strategie in place which oviously worked.
If Aideed’s son, who went to US for school and actually became a US Marine, and actually was deployed there, was allowed to be some sort of a conduit between US and the warlords there, things might have turned out differently. He’s now back at home and took over his father’s seat after he was assassinated by a rival warlord. Perhaps he would be a good person to write that book for a perspective on the Somali side.
they were fighting a big uncoordinated mob of guys with guns and rpgs, if they had any sense of command or organization then non of the US soldiers would of been saved or rescued, there was 1000's of them yet only a hand full of soldiers managed to keep them at bay, air support was so limited too with what was available was getting shot to hell. the vast numbers of the mob and being in their home town should of easily over run the survivors but soon as help arrived the mob was left dangling - and they called it a success?
The movie of this story is what motivated my impressionable young self into joining the army. This battle will have a special meaning to many soldiers of my generation, not just for the bravery and sacrifices of those that took part, but also for the memories of the cameradery and shared experiences watching this movie out on deployments and in barracks. 🤙🤙

What crazy and desperate scenario. Lots of very brave soldiers.
Although both Pakistani & Malaysian troops contributed to their best, little recognition was given in the famous movie black hawk down specially to Malaysians.
Respect for all the UN soldiers who played their part.
Had no idea that Pakistani and Malays helped in Black Hawk Down. The movie should have recognized their bravery.
