Is it the largest US mil single loss of life since the Beirut barracks bombing?93.137.145.142  

i believe there was a non-hostile helicopter crash in Iraq in early '06 that killed 31.  i do believe it is the single largest hostile loss of life for our military since Beirut though.

There has been no indication that this helicopter was an aviation asset of the 160th SOAR.
