The Obama administration is violating a judge’s order to turn over
documents in the Aug. 6, 2011, shootdown of a U.S. helicopter — call
sign Extortion 17 — that killed members of SEAL Team 6 in Afghanistan, a watchdog group is charging.
On
the fourth anniversary of the worst one-day loss of military life in
the war on terror, families of the dead say they are aghast that the
government will not honor basic requests under the Freedom of Information Act.
“It has now been four years since Extortion 17 was shot down,” said Doug Hamburger,
whose Army air crew son, Patrick, was one of the 30 Americans killed.
“I find it quite disturbing that the government is not willing to give
us the answers we deserve. I find it very irritating that we will not
question the Afghans about their knowledge of what took place that
night.”
