I'm so much amazed at America military operational tactics! God bless America and Americans!

This was a really great documentary, thank you for posting it.

I have to say that the Navy Seals heroics in this operation was very difficult, but they did they’re jobs by heroism ,and they deserve to get Medal 🏅 of honor ,Malladets bravo 👏. Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈🍾.

An excellent documentary!! It was realistic, fast-paced and exciting.

God bless the navy seals. God bless those that were hurt and lost. May they rest in peace.

Those zodiac motors always break down but they're usually pretty quick to fix. We did a training package at Coronado Island on the seal base (I was marine) and the coxswain (sp?) course taught them how to fix them on the fly. We did a training raid over maybe 10-15 miles and I swear out of a couple dozen boats or so, a quarter of them broke down. Most were repaired in minutes. "Air fuel spark!"

I was part of that mission which was supposed to be my last!!! I survived. God bless America.

As a diverse I was at the edge of my seat all the time. Bravo to brave men.

From a fellow Sailor, this is a must watch.

In 1973 I went to Brasil from Panama. On the same Pan American plane, he in first class me and two of my soldiers in coach travelled there. Three days later we were leaving Army headquarters in Brasilia. He, only a lieutenant colonel had to take the bus. We were given a carryall as we photographers had to transport our equipment. Noriega was awaiting a bus. We pulled up to the bus stop. He looked frightened. I said in Spanish, Colonel Noriega, we are from Panama la Zona del Canal here to photograph the conference you are attending. May I give you a ride? He got in. I asked if we could pick him up in the morning. He said yes, but Toca la bocina “Hit the horn”. He did not want us to enter his BOQ room. Later, I found out why. He on a diplomatic passport carried a machine pistol to Brasil. He was so frightened that he would be executed. A porter bringing the minutes of the conference opened his door only to find Noriega pointing the pistol at him. When we got back to Panama And the film was printed I called Colonel Noriega to bring the still photos and a rough cut of the film. He wanted to come to my office, but I did not want to explain why he was visiting me so I volunteered to carry the film and photos to him. He was nice to me, but a real snake. My brother has dual US and Panamanian citizenship has told me what high level Panamanians know or knew about Noriega. My brother still has an apartment at Punto Patilla, the nicest part of Panama City.

Amazing ! I can't imagine being 50 ft under water.

My uncle served in Panama (operation just cause) in 1989 . He was a marine sergeant . He died in Iraq (operation induring freedom ,)

Please upload more of recent SEAL operations

Love the SEALS

I always have respect for the man and woman that give their lives for America

Full respect.. Carson is a top commander. Wow x

'The only day, was yesterday!'

Great video. Thank you for posting.

That's BADASS!! Thanks for sharing!!

So very proud to be an American!

Very satisfied watching the Navy Seal special forces ... really awesome

Amazing

This entire invasion was a "slam dunk". The biggest problem planners had was fielding all the requests from various military units: "we want to play too!", and finding missions for them all. In the case of this plane and boat, they could easily have been destroyed in minutes with a helicopter gunship or F-16, but the Seals wanted to play too, so this mission was given to them. During the leadup to the invasion, troops could actually walk the ground they planned to attack in broad daylight and with no reprecussions .... how often does that happen? We drove our armored vehicles across the front of the PDF 5th Infantry Barracks every day.. with machine guns pointing at the barracks that were only 50 feet from the road. The Panamanians knew it was coming before long, and even knew what would happen, and that there was nothing they could do. On the night of the attacks, all the Panamanian Officers were mysteriously absent from the Panamanian bases around Fort Amador in Panama City. They could not even get into the arms room to get out their weapons and ammo, because the offciers had the keys. The biggest problem was the "Brigade de Dignidad" (Brigade of Dignity) which was a large force of paramilitary forces Noriega created shortly before the invasion. These troops were recruited from impoverished areas that were stout Noriega supporters, and became almost Rabid in their support once Noriega created a special force for them to join. The were trained for about six months prior to the invasion by Captain (later Major) Moses Cortizo-Cohen, who was commander of the Panamanian 5th Infantry on Fort Amador. They wore no uniforms, had no military haircuts, and could blend into the community. They remained a problem for weeks after the invasion was concluded.

Way to go boys! Over and out!

SIR"" MIlitary Navy Seals and Marine Soldiers so brave youthful handsome honour heroes, sacrifice training soldiers extremely tough exhausted. Fighting warriors for humanity desperately needs freedom . GOD sending you're guy to earth save humanity's. You're Angeles. Please let their Souls welcome GOD HOUSE. BLESSED. R.I.P. SALUTE, NEVER FORGOTTEN, from AUSTRALIA. !!

Man these guys are badass, whenever a seal dies it's like so much training gone instantly

I remember watching this show growing up. Glad to find it again

SEALS are our true heroes 💖🇺🇸 You all are so brave🇺🇸💕

Hello. Thank you for your service. Be safe out there people. Love to all

Excellent mission and exploits worthy of praise!! Just wondering why they didn't execute precision strikes to take out both the gunship and the plane??

Great!!! with sophisticated strategies...

She was brutalized? That's news to me. I remember that well. We were waiting on a reason/excuse to go in after Noriega. America knew what he was doing there for many years till he stopped cooperating with the Americans

Outstanding

The whole Panama invasion was a terrible decision to cover up past mistakes. But that does now take away the amazing bravery and skill of the SEALs. The government might be corrupt but those men still go above and beyond their call of duty and I salute every last one of them

Wonder wow Wonderful better than movies shows.

Very Proud of you

Keep on.

Amazing vid!!!

We In S Africa pray for you❤❤❤❤❤

God bless America 🇺🇸 🙏 ❤

Good lord talk about murphys law!! God bless are seals!!!

To the brave men and women of panama I salute you for bravely

During WWII my father a USN UDT/CB (underwater demolition and salvage diver & sea bee) was stationed on Okinawa. I have seen this video before and it irked me then as it does now that for whatever reason the plan was changed to be 15 minutes sooner and... THERE WAS NO COMMUNICATION TO WARN OUR MEN... To think of all those American Servicemen who lost their lives and all the perp Noriega got was 40 years... You can not but have great respect for our troops.

What an amazing feat that was accomplished Thank you for sharing that task with us. God bless all involved.

VERY WELL !

Above and beyond the Call of Duty

I remember this watching the news

this was like a movie wow

Why did they not simply hit the boat and plane with missiles?

Ngaihnawm hle mai,an lo turu e

I love this

I never understood why they didn’t just drop a couple small bombs on the very few strategic sites like the hanger and dock ! It seem it would have accomplished the same results and not cost that many lives ! I guess that’s why I’m not making those decisions ! A big thank you to all who have served and to those GOLD STAR FAMILIES !! GOD BLESS AMERICA !! UNITED WE STAND !!!

Another great wonder series. I was hooked on 'shouldn't be alive' .. This is also quite an adrenalin boost...

Long live America

So badass

Those guys and the SAS get my thumbs up ☺

Believable courage in performing duty of navy seals.😊😊😊

AMERICA FIRST , MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN

God bless America .

from the chaos that we created to begin with a befitting end, that was left out.

This is amazing.. God bless all the Navy Seals and their families in Jesus' name!

heroic men and amazing story, saved democracy in panama

This is the big help of the U.S to the other Country and to the rest of the World who is suffering from the hands of their bad leader. even though it's a risky mission they're always there to protect.

Amazing team 😍😍😍😍😘😘😘👍👍🤝🤝🤝🙏🙏🙏🙏

There is more to it that we will never know. Fact

Side topic. Does anyone remember the documentary in the late 90s about the mission to create a diversion on the iraq beach where they had to swim and plant explosives and then swim out?

150,000.00 to 600,000.00 for a ship to go through the Panama canal one way.

Legit the Cayo Perico heist IRL

I was an elite seal team operator in a dream once.

A classic example of "You messing with a wrong man"

God bless our troops BUT why, when the fighting started, couldn't we just have fired a "Hellfire" missile or some other missile into the gunboat from a safe distance?

This goes on forever

If Carter didnt give up the canal we would still have it and not the chinnse

[ servered 1984 to 1988 GM in Little Creek.one of my seal team friends was going some where .this is where he went

Special forces are crazy tough

They should do the same in Venezuela

Good job Panama

Long live america

GOD BLESS AMERICA

now....drones fellas....no way we get our guys killed for a boat or a jet....couple hellfires from 2000 feet , story over- I love Panama, great place now

Noriega thought he's got the toughest military on the block..🤣🤣🤣

Panama was a great country in the 70’s

Just about every operation I see on these shows turns into a clusterf@ck.

I had 2 close friends that were there. One was a major and the other a lt.

You wonder why Noriega couldn't use any other boat that was in the area?
