Mike, if you want to read a fascinating recounting of that fateful day in Mogadishu go to:

blackhawkdown.com

I guarantee you will be glued to your screen until you are done. Click on the Text Excerpt button and the PhillyEnquirer articles will start. After you read each chapter click on next for the next chapter. I think there about 30 chapters.

Those two Delta troops were Sgts. Randy Shughart and Gary Gordon and they received the only MOHs awarded since the Vietnam war. The article doesn't give much play to their story and makes it sound like they were more or less ordered to drop into the soup. As I understand it, they suggested the plan and volunteered, which makes more sense in light of the Honor they received.

edit: yea, I think I'm right about the circumstances:
