We were working with local
military anti-drug forces...

:03:38
a search and destroy
mission on cocaine labs.

:03:42
Lt. Dobbs and I had trained
local pilots in Cobras...

:03:44
for their own
strike forces.

:03:46
This is Snake Two...
:03:48
entering sector 4079.
:03:50
Advise operations
of our position.

:03:52
Wilco, Dobbs.
How's the view up front?

:03:56
I'll be glad
when we get out of this canyon.

:04:01
I was flying wing
with Captain Tejada.

:04:03
Lt. Dobbs,
the other American...

:04:05
was with
Captain Mendez.

:04:07
Between the 2 Cobras was
a Black Hawk helicopter...

:04:11
with a support team
of American...

:04:14
and South American
D.E.A. agents.

:04:16
It was our
4th mission as a team.

:04:18
We were entering
a new sector.

:04:21
It was rumored
among the locals...

:04:23
that this was an area
of offensive cartel activity...

:04:26
but we were
used to such rumors.

:04:28
We were 5 miles
from the objective...

:04:31
when we saw the Scorpion
attack helicopter.

:04:35
Dobbs, bogey at your 12:00!
:04:39
Dobbs!
:04:42
Black Hawk,
get the hell out of there.

:04:46
The Black Hawk
began evasive action...

:04:49
but the Scorpion
was too fast...

:04:52
heavily armed,
and hard to find.

:04:55
The pilot was
the best I'd ever seen.

:04:59
I tried to pull the Scorpion
away from the Black Hawk...
