I was thinking of the C-130 I understood the Libyans had ready to depart for Benghazi. I leave the refueling details to you since you obviously have experience and expertise in this area.

If I read it right, they did have a C-130 ready to go, and that's when they got the "Stand Down" order.
But if they had issued the SCRAMBLE ORDER when they first got the call for HELP from Amb. Stevens, then they should have arrived within two hours, according to my experience,
and more aircraft would have been coming to assist and should have arrived within another hour.
The military lives to respond to this kind of problem.
And the dead Terrorists would have been a very large number.
But the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF would allow it.
He protected his Muslim Brotherhood, over our U.S. Citizens and our precious military.
