The movie "Black Hawk Down" is based on a true story about a group of Delta Force commandos and US Army Rangers led by General William Garrison (Sam Shepard). In 1993 they are dropped into Somalia to capture two warlords. After capturing the warlords, their Black Hawk helicopters are taken down by rocket propelled grenades, so more US soldiers are sent in to rescue their comrades. Sergeant Eversmann (Josh Hartnett) and Lieutenant Colonel McKnight (Tom Sizemore) are two of the soldiers who were in the downed helicopters. The rescue forces get ambushed throughout their mission, and many American soldiers are killed during the battles.
