Direct Action (1x3)

Air date: Jul 12, 2013

Direct Action revolves around the SEALs military role working with conventional main force units in peacekeeping missions in Europe and the Near East. Witness a live fire direct attack by a SEAL platoon on a suspected enemy missile site, three different visual scenarios on rescuing prisoners from foreign enemies and terrorists, including a pilot rescue re-enactment in a mock Yugoslavian town by sniper teams and a squad patrolling nearby. These rescues include extractions under live fire conditions. Program also contains interviews with SEALs including a return (by popular demand) of a weapons expert who will explain and demonstrate the latest weapons employed by US Navy SEALS.
