The only EP they followed was the famous one from Bob Hoover, arguably the single greatest American pilot of all time:

 

If you're faced with a forced landing, fly the thing as far into the crash as possible.

I don't think any EP's helped with this situation... the dudes just hung on and road the pony. Face it, some pilots can crash better than others!

What are the dates from this deployment? I recognize one of the names, and I think you guys did a few MEDEVAC's for my unit.

That was my last unit, I didn't deploy with the medevac but I think it was OEF 10-11 if my memory is correct.

Yea, Dec 14th 2010... that unit did some legit work for us... I've got some pictures somewhere one of my guys took of them attempting to land under fire. After the second attempt they touched down and were able to extract my 240 gunner. After 2 GSW's to the head, thanks to that crew his family was able to say goodbye in Germany before he passed.
