sergeant barth begins lowering deputy paramedic mark demarto toward the woman. both men are wearing helmet cameras. as soon as i left the bird, i started to spin due to the rotor wash. i needed to stop this spin as fast as i can and get it stopped in a safe manner away from our victim. he doesn t want to accidentally bump into the woman and knock her off the rock face. i was able to point out a spot on the cliff where i could safely stop my spinning. basically, it s a flintstone maneuver. you stick your foot out against the cliff face and you come to a stop. okay. good. then get to the task at hand and complete the rescue. but demarto is still getting pushed away from the rock by the wind kicked up by the helicopter s powerful rotor. he uses hand signals to communicate with barth.
and a dramatic search by u.s. special forces all caught on two of the soldier s helmet cameras. is he going to be sold off to another group and beheaded? is he going to be killed because he s taking up too much effort? november 2004, roy hallums is working for the saudi arabia trading and construction company, negotiating catering contracts for the iraqi military and police. our office was about three blocks outside the green zone. where the embassy and the u.s. army offices locate. we knew it was a dangerous place, but we never had any trouble with anybody. but on november 1st, that all changes. at the time, special agent tom o connor is with the fbi s joint terrorist task force. on november 1st of 2004 roy
so last week we got the stunning news out of iraq that american special forces reported to be delta force launched a dramatic last second raid on an isis facility where isis was apparently holding more than 70 hostages and was preparing to execute them all in a mass execution the next morning at dawn. this is video supposedly of that raid that was provided exclusively to nbc news. it appears to have been taken on helmet cameras by iraqi kurdish forces during that raid to free those isis hostages. that mission was not we re told designed as an american-led mission. these american commandos were there in support of iraqi kurdish forces but it was the iraqi kurdish forces supposed to be the ones carrying out that raid. that said things don t always go
impression when you have cell phone video or helmet cameras, you are going to know what happened. we see this start and end. there is already an altercation happening. you see her punch him. the altercation started. is there something that could have happened before this that could have justified this action or not? absolutely. what we want to know, what was going on before? not only does it matter under south carolina law, it is a misdemeanor if you re disrupting a classroom, but this county s policy which tiers its infractions. if a student is merely disruptive, that can get the student in trouble. did it warrant calling the police officer in? that depends whether the teacher ordered her out of the classroom. that s where the escalation begins. danny, thank you very much. next, our clarissa ward on the front lines in isis. this is a report you cannot miss. you ll see who is calling the shots. who is telling american war
