That terrorist knewthat we'd recover the pod in short order. He expectedthat we'd be talking to Marshall. Let's not bury him yet.He could still be alive in that plane. Let's not forget, this presidentis a Medal of Honour winner. In Vietnam, he flew more helicopter rescuemissions than any other man in my command. - He knows how to fight.- Then he's taking a terrible chancewith his life.
