:13:01
for election day in Panama.
:13:03
Colombian drug lord Raoul Ochoa
is bankrolling it.
:13:07
His plan is to put in
rebel General Miguel Alvarez in power.
:13:11
We have less than one week
to prevent that.
:13:14
With his man Alvarez running
the country...
:13:16
Ochoa could very easily gain access
to the Panama Canal.
:13:19
We have only one shot at Alvarez...
:13:22
and it is absolutely critical
that we eliminate the general...
:13:25
prior to next week's election.
:13:27
Now, this operation
won't bear congressional scrutiny.
:13:33
lt must be completely covert.
:13:36
You won't be getting a medal for this.
:13:38
But there will be other
tangible benefits.
:13:41
First one's Alvarez.
:13:46
Most recent photo
was taken ten days ago.
:13:48
The ponytail's Ochoa.
:13:50
Ochoa's never seen outside of Colombia.
:13:53
That's Alvarez's hacienda.
That's where you'll find him.
:13:57
That's your shooter.
:14:01
That's Master Gunnery Sargent
Thomas Beckett.
:14:02
He's the Marine Corps' top man.
:14:04
He's logged more time in the jungle
than any other sniper.
:14:07
On this particular mission,
your function is to be his spotter.
:14:10
Mr. Miller, should anything happen
to Beckett...
:14:14
your duty would be to eliminate Alvarez.
:14:16
- Personally.
- Don't worry about having to shoot him.
:14:19
Beckett is the best,
and l'm sure it wouldn't come to that.
:14:22
l may not have any kills...
:14:25
but I have had men in my sights.
:14:27
Good.
:14:30
We're giving you rank on this one:
GS-9.
:14:33
The mission is under your command.
lt's your responsibility.
:14:37
Good luck.
:14:40
Consider it done. Gentlemen.
:14:50
One last thing.
:14:51
This assignment is critical.
:14:53
lf at any point Beckett becomes
a liability...
:14:56
or he endangers this mission's
covert status...
