Todd Blackburn is incorrectly depicted by both the film and the book as being the newest member of B Company 3/75 Ranger at the age of 18 just prior to the 'Black Hawk Down' incident. However, both the film and book are factually incorrect, with the book stating he had not yet even attended Ranger School. PFC Blackburn was actually one of the more senior Rangers in his company, being three weeks shy of his 20th birthday at the time of the raid (squarely at the average age of the other men in B Company). Due to the Traumatic Brain Injury he sustained in the fall, he has no recollection of events, or what may have caused his fall; while the pilot dodging an RPG as suggested by the film (but not the book) is a possibility, it is unsubstantiated and no other Ranger had difficulty while rappelling. Sgt. Eversmann was unaware Blackburn had fallen until he had completed his fast rope descent.
