They're not supposed to air burst, but they are.
So something's going on here.
But let's just call an alternate pickup zone.
So we infilled right into Otto's garage.
And our guys cleared it, took it down, captured eight of his people that worked for him.
He was there.
The intel was good.
And you can see it on video as we're coming in.
These guys are smart.
They're not stupid.
He didn't run.
He looked up, saw the helos, and says, I'll be back in a bit, and just casually walked out of the compound, down an alleyway.
I mean, you can see it.
And we found out later that that was him.
But his guys are left there, and we captured them.
And then, like I said, we did an alternate pickup zone, which means
you go in to extract from another location because you're thinking if they were shooting rpgs on the way in they're probably going to shoot a lot more if we go back in there so we pick up from an alternate location the ground force just has to maneuver on the ground to the new pickup zone didn't take any fire at all successful execution just missed a really really lucrative target by seconds
Then we get a hit on him again a couple of days later.
He's in a meeting place downtown.
All right, spool up, ready to rock.
