Thanks for your stories & info Scotty! I'm sure that I'm not alone in saying I could listen to you speak for hours as someone who was there & has been in the S#it! Look forward to more...
I recall a multi-agency op my team went in on a while back with similar aspects. Our team was assigned the back entry, which was through 1/4 mile of dense woods which was crossed by a half dozen steep ravines. In pitch black dark, 85 degrees and 90% humidity. We got in position barely in time for the other teams to come in through the front and sides, and by the time we made our entry (we were essentially the blocking position all the fun was over. The guys we busted were similarly relieved to learn we were LE and not rival cartel assassins.
