00:00It's a high-risk but a high-value mission.
00:03As I mentioned, Admiral Cooper, our commander of U.S. Central Command and other commanders in the area,
00:09this really becomes the main focus of whatever U.S. forces and Israeli forces we're doing up to this point.
00:16It's almost as if all eyes focus now on getting that crew back home safe and sound.
00:21It does come with risk, but again, it's what we've trained, it's what we've exercised,
00:26and it's what we're ready for to conduct a safe operation, and job one right now is to get this
00:31crew back home safe and sound.
00:33You would anticipate both the first crew member ejecting and the second crew member ejecting almost in a tandem fashion,
00:42unless there's something else going on in the aircraft that would delay the ejection,
00:45perhaps for the second crew member for whatever reason,
00:48but I would anticipate that they would be in the vicinity of the same area once they were able to
00:54safely eject from the aircraft,
00:56presumably, and then hit the ground and figure out the relatively same locale,
01:01and that's exactly what Combat Search and Rescue will try to determine.
01:06If indeed it's true that they've located one of the crew members,
01:10then the second crew member should be nearby,
01:12and that's the assumption you go in to try to find that second crew member.
