Michael D. Steele Biography

Michael D. Steele is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on September 15, 1960 in Statham, Georgia, United States.

Michael Dane Steele (born September 15, 1960) is a retired colonel of the United States Army. He was a company commander in the 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment during the Somalia mission Operation Gothic Serpent, which resulted in the now famous book and film Black Hawk Down, wherein he was portrayed by actor Jason Isaacs. He briefly appears in the documentary I Am an American Soldier.

On the afternoon of 3 October 1993, Task Force Ranger received intelligence that two leaders of Aidid’s militia were at a residence in central Mogadishu. In response, the task force sent 19 aircraft, 12 vehicles, and 160 men to arrest them. At 1542 hours, in Mogadishu, Captain Steele fast-roped from a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter into the Bakara Market. The raid was to take 30 minutes and was meant to capture Omar Salad and Abdi Hassan Awale, two top advisors to Warlord Mohammed Farrah Aidid. They and other prisoners were loaded into the vehicle convoy to be transported back to base. However, with the downing of two UH-60 Black Hawks, Super 61 (CW4 Cliff Wolcott) and Super 64 (CW3 Mike Durant), the mission dramatically changed for the worse.
