    30 km from Ottawa.     April 24, 1980: A group of Delta Force
    operators, US Army Rangers and
    US Air Force and Marine Corps pilots
    engage in a failed attempt to rescue 52
    hostages held inside Iran. This failure cost the
    lives of 8 service members after an aircraft collision.
    The subsequent investigation would result in the
    identified need for a permanent special operations capability.
