Um, you know, and like I said, it's just total chaos on the ground.

Trying to target discriminate was a challenge trying to see who's who and it's dark out.

Right.

And, um,

So we ended up finally landing on the roof.

As we're landing on the roof, my bird was number one because I had to get off.

My job was run over to the annex.

The annex was about 10 feet by 10 feet.

So just a concrete structure with a door.

All right, that would give you access into the building.

It was four stories.

And now originally when I got intel from the CIA, they said it was a solid steel door.

I said, okay, so I prepared my charges for that net explosive weight, blah, blah, blah, charge configuration.

When I get to the target and I run up to the annex to place my charge, I'll be damned.

Yeah, there's a steel door, but it's behind a jail door about six to eight inches.

So now I've got a jail door and a steel door.

and I've got to breach both these doors.

The problem with the jail door is there's not a whole lot of surface area for charged contact, right?

So the particular charge I was using was very big.

I put a lot of extra explosives on it because I figured, you know what?
