I want to tell you that I saw this ingenuity very real when we had this incredible mission where The 494th Fighter Squadron lost a couple of pilots downed in Iran. Now, we knew they were alive. We didn't know exactly where they were. The first confirmation that both crew members, beacons were active actually happened about a day after these pilots, or the second pilot, I should say, went down. (51:15–51:21)
