US Helicopter Down in Iraq, Crew Safe

Tuesday July 31, 2007 1:01 PM

BAGHDAD (AP) - A U.S. helicopter went down Tuesday after coming under fire in eastern Baghdad, and the crew members were safely evacuated, the military said.

The AH-64 Apache helicopter made a precautionary landing after facing ground fire east of the predominantly Shiite New Baghdad district, according to a statement.

U.S. military spokesman Lt. Col. Christopher Garver said it was not known if the aircraft had been damaged, but the incident was under investigation.

The two crew members were taken to a U.S. military hospital for a routine evaluation, the military said.

I was on the recovery mission for this aircraft, a bird belonging to A 1/227th. It was a pretty bad day for the recovery team.
