The 160th has been around since the early 80’s when the U.S. Army developed a special aviation unit during the failed hostage rescue mission “Desert One” in Iran. In 1981 the 160th became their own battalion and were popularly known as Task Force 160. Its focus on night operations resulted in the nickname, "The Night Stalkers."
