"This brave Warrior was behind enemy lines in the treacherous mountains of Iran, being hunted down by our enemies, who were getting closer and closer by the hour, but was never truly alone because his Commander in Chief, Secretary of War, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and fellow Warfighters were monitoring his location 24 hours a day, and diligently planning for his rescue."
"The type of rescue mission that recovered him is seldom attempted because of the danger to man and equipment. Two raids had taken place, and the pilot was rescued in broad daylight during the second raid."
The US military successfully rescued a missing American fighter jet crew member in Iran after his F-15 was shot down. The pilot was quickly saved, but a search was initiated for the weapons systems officer. President Trump announced the rescue, describing the operation as dangerous and unusual. The rescue involved two raids, with the second occurring in broad daylight. Trump emphasized the bravery of the rescued airman and the extensive planning that went into the operation, which lasted seven hours over Iranian territory.
