"We are getting AAA and I do see the tank, I request clearance in when able..."

On February 22nd, 1991 Maj. John Beal destroyed 3 hostile Iraqi Tank Positions before his A-10 was crippled and downed behind enemy lines by heavy AAA fire.

music really seems to go with it.

hostile AAA fire

As opposed to... friendly? Cuddly?

Music was annoying.

I didn't like the music either. It seemed very sardonic and morbid considering the nature of the video - Major Beal was intent on killing people, who were trying to kill other people, while his plane was being shot at by people trying to kill him.

Let's not forget how wrong War is, or glorify it.

Ummm... I think that makes the music appropriate, not sardonic.

Where we supposed to be able to actually see anything in that video?

I liked the music better than the video, it might as well have been a blank screen and an audiosift, that was boring as all hell. The saving point was the ending where I got a feel good happy moment with team work acknowledgment. ROCKIN MUSIC !
