19. No but not all of us are clueless. I watched the long video, without knowing a thing about it -

I tried to see it exactly as it was being seen. (seeing the whole video helps) And, what I would do (with no training, except in guns). It sounded like there was ground support in the beginning of the video that 1st radioed in that there were weapons. Someone radioed in that there was firing - no one in the video could see it but that doesnt mean you are not being fired upon for sure - especially from that distance in an Apache!
I could hear in the cock sure kid that fired upon the van, he tried to justify it right when he found out there were kids hurt. He tried to find a way to live with it. That kid has to also live with the failure of his command to help him keep his trigger finger in check too. Guy like this gets his own guys killed.
Maybe I'm wrong but that's how it sounded to me.

Cheers
Sandy
