PDF-[DOWNLOAD]-Friendly Fire: The Accidental Shootdown of U.S. Black Hawks over Northern Iraq

On April 14 1994 two US Air Force F15 fighters accidentally shot down two US Army Black Hawk Helicopters over Northern Iraq killing all twentysix peacekeepers onboard In response to this disaster the complete array of military and civilian investigative and judicial procedures ran their course After almost two years of investigation with virtually unlimited resources no culprit emerged no bad guy showed himself no smoking gun was found This book attempts to make sense of this tragedya tragedy that on its surface makes no sense at allWith almost twenty years in uniform and a PhD in organizational behavior Lieutenant Colonel Snook writes from a unique perspective A victim of friendly fire himself he develops individual group organizational and crosslevel accounts of the accident and applies a rigorous analysis based on behavioral science theory to account for critical links in the causal chain of events By explaining separate pieces of the puzzle and analyzing each at a different level the author removes much of the mystery surrounding the shootdown Based on a grounded theory analysis Snook offers a dynamic crosslevel mechanism he calls practical driftthe slow steady uncoupling of practice from written procedureto complete his explanationHis conclusion is disturbing This accident happened because or perhaps in spite of everyone behaving just the way we would expect them to behave just the way theory would predict The shootdown was a normal accident in a highly reliable organization. 20 1027200 1048830 1054860 1081860 1126920 1137390 1180200 1192470 1229340 1282710 O7 826440 864840 882600 896730 922290 947580 976770 1005900 1035120 1126920 1204380 O6 612540 672960 717120 717120 719850 750720 754770 754770 797670 873510 918030 O5 Who are the Hawks?.
