After seeing what one man did with photoshop I decided to honor him. I saw these both working when I was in New Mexico and then I just got the idea. Also my first edits, so if any good plz tell. Note: These are not contest shots, I just posted them cause I think they're cool.

Tracer rounds, and the flash is from the minigun. And concidereing a tracer is added about every 10 rounds you can see how fast they fire.

So in truth, more Search and Destroy instead of Search and Rescue... ;D

Well in reality that would be used as covering fire as they came in if the pilot was being followed. So while in truth they are trying to save people, they need to be able to protect the pilot as well.

Ah. I was thinking Search and Rescue in more of a civilian role. :)

who or what is Nichollas II? The most likely thing you could think of this as is portrayed in teh movie "Behind Enemy Lines" when the Marines rescued the pilot. (BTY, the movie was extremely inaccurate as to what really happened) But the CSAR part was fairly accurate about how it is done. These are USAF choppers though.

Nice Edit, I especially like the first one. The only thing that could use a little work is the tracers, to me they seem a little "stringy"... just constructive critcism of course. ;) Much better than my first edit which I was too ashamed to post. :-[ :P

thanks, i couldnt figure out a way to get the tracers to glow in the NVG view like they would in real life, but that was only a formality
