His thoughts on Ireland didn't impress me much either ;)

Apparently they were involved in hunting for Osama. So is that the end of Seal Team Six?

Seal Team Five were killed during Under Siege.

It'll be a devastating blow to the SEALs overall, never mind what constitutes a team I'd wager.

Yes it does look devastating to them overall. Though why weren't such choppers covered with flare dispensers or decoys? Also why have so many in one chopper?

I think it was coming in very low no matter what was on-board.

Probably also downed by an unguided RPG. Flares, chaff or jamming would have no affect.

Which might suggest that they should have been further away from such an active zone.
