During the non-fixed-wing transports are when these elite troops always seem to be the most vulnerable, and when we lose the most of them to either foe or accident.

NO, that the media does not know the difference between an orifice in the ground and one in which they defecate from when it comes to military operations.
Any vehicle with a gun tube is a tank idiocy!
Yes, rotary wing has always been the easy target, and one the size of a barn is just plain ignorant. Sadly, these are signs of budget reduction as protocol was breached on this mission, and I hope JPAS makes a 'for public release' statement, but that would be funding/political suicide!
