Absolutely worth it. And on multiple levels. Rescuing the pilot alone was worth the expense. The commitment it shows boosts troop morale...nice to know that if you have a bad day, your leadership is going to send your buddies to get you, no matter what. And it also send a very serious message to the Iranians that we can do whatever we want, even on your turf. What a fantastic thing to wake up to this morning! ----------------------------------------------------------- Any comments made by this poster are my own and do not reflect the views or opinions of my employer. | |||

Holy shit, will be fascinated with the official report to come out but the stuff that seems pretty legit so far… Pilot had to climb a mountain Villagers hid him Special forces had to destroy their own disabled aircraft I wait for their own reinforcements Metric shit ton of Iranian militia were closing fast Take my money for the movie right now SERE instructors today - man, the behind-the-scenes conversations they must be having with each other about this situation and how to use it in future classes. ___________________________ All it takes...is all you got. ____________________________ For those who have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

Night Stalker AH-6 Little Bird Helicopters Destroyed At Forward Landing Site In Iran At least one burned-out AH/MH-6 Little Bird can be seen in photos of the austere airfield that served as a hub for the rescue of the F-15E WSO. by Tyler Rogoway Updated Apr 5, 2026 6:11 AM EDT New images have emerged that appear to show the destroyed special operations C-130s (MC-130Js Commando IIs) at the forward improvised airfield in Iran. The austere operating location acted as a hub (and forward arming and refueling point or FARP) for the rescue mission of the downed F-15E Weapon System Officer. You can read our latest coverage on the rescue here. It has been reported that the two C-130s were demolished in place as they were incapable of departing, with three more aircraft coming in and extracting the special operations force. Amongst this wreckage appears to be two burned-out wrecks of MH-6/AH-6 Little Birds of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, better known as the Night Stalkers...

IMO, a fairly detailed report on the rescue operation, way more complex than I imagined. "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

Sounds like shades of the Desert One landing/refueling site for Operation Eagle Claw (the (failed) rescue attempt of the American Embassy hostages in 1980). A couple aircraft is a small price to pay for getting our guy back. Imagine the psychological/political fall-out if the Iranians captured him. I think I read that Iran threatened to burn alive any captured airmen. I read an excellent book on the Night Stalkers. Those guys are incredible. I look forward to reading the book on this rescue.

I'm happy the second Pilot is back in American hands!
The Cadre at the Schoolhouse has always been in contact with Downed Pilots, POW's and others who have had to use Escape and Evade techniques, as well as those who had to deal with the Resistance portion of the class. There's a portion of the class (or so I've been told) that's video & power point from the actual survivors. As far as the movie: Ehhh... already done. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0..._1_accord_2_cdt_t_71 ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.
