CONOPS

Concept of Operations

Situation:

On 4 OCT 1993, a UH-60 helicopter carrying Army Rangers and Delta Force crashed during the Battle of Mogadishu. They had to run a mile, without support and very little ammunition, under enemy fire from the crash site to a rendezvous point a mile away so they could be exfiltrated.

Honor these brave men by running the Mogadishu Mile.
