Crew unaware of chopper's narrow escape
An Australian Chinook helicopter came under fire while flying low over an Afghan village and neither the crew nor a U.S. Chinook following behind were aware of it.

The incident came to light after footage shot by a cameraman on board showed a tracer round or a rocket-propelled grenade missing the aircraft by 20 metres.
