U.F.O at the Olympic Trials

Question: Is this a U.S. Army helicopter?


If it wasn't, can someone tell me what it was? I'd really like to know. It was circling over Hayward Field many times on July 4. It wasn't a TV news chopper, nor was it a tourist flight (not big enough). It looked like a recon-type chopper.
I believe it was Donald Rumsfeld searching for those WMD's.

Bought it with my allowance at Kay-Bee Toys (saved for MONTHS). Didn't really do much other than go up and down, but I thought it was super cool.
