Command and control
comes from Red Crown.
:37:06
You men have three slicks loaded with
2.75 rocket pods and guns at your disposal.
:37:12
Use advisedly.
:37:14
l want gimbal attachments
for all fast ropers.
:37:18
Team leaders report to me
as soon as your squad is ready.
:37:22
- (knock on door)
- Come.
:37:26
Admiral, what's going on down there?
:37:29
We have an F-18 down in southern Bosnia.
One pilot suspected dead.
:37:33
Who authorized a search and rescue?
:37:36
- l did.
- Call it off. Stand down, Admiral.
:37:41
Maybe l didn't make myself clear. We have
pilots down. One probably already dead.
:37:45
Admiral, l have spoken personally
to Bosnian military commanders.
:37:49
They say the shoot-down was perpetrated
:37:51
by renegade forces
attempting to disrupt the peace process.
:37:55
Of course they say that.
:37:57
They're also claiming, Admiral,
that your aircraft was way off-mission.
:38:02
lf we fly in there we create a shitstorm,
and the whole treaty will collapse.
:38:06
Admiral, Burnett says
that Serb troops murdered his pilot.
:38:10
ls your pilot an expert on Bosnia?
:38:12
Can he distinguish between the uniforms
of Serbs, Croats and Muslims?
:38:16
Because l can't, and l've been
posted here for five years.
:38:20
lf your man is in danger,
he should get himself into a safe zone.
:38:24
That is what he's briefed and trained to do.
:38:28
Listen, Leslie. l can have your fleet
commander order you to stand down,
:38:33
or you can do it yourself.
