[This BBC article](http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6285091.stm) shows the recovery of a body using Apache helicopters. It’s got a link to a video too. What it really doesn’t show is quite how small the Apaches are. Sure it says they had people strapped to the outside - likely sitting on the outriders holding the weapons pods - but I’ve seen them at very close quarters. There’s not a lot of room and these guys sure have guts.
