    Lamb interviewed Perino on his podcast last year, Perino went on to do some interesting things. Good listen

    Awesome video! I am sort of a Black Hawk Down junkie. I watched the movie more times than I can count, read the book 4 times. I even bought The History Channel’s True Story Of Blackhawk Down. I was intrigued by the characters in the movie, who they represented in real life. COL (RET) Van Arsdale was interviewed in the History Channel production, but he was not in the book. I always wondered what his role was? Now I know! Thanks for sharing!
