How could they get left behind??? Didn't they have a GPS device and radio? We should have, at a minimum, sent a truck out to pick up the crew.

The next morning, the crew went to work with rope, wire and duct tape.

And staples, paper clips and spit.

That's what separates our military from lesser nations. We have an ancestral gene that permits us to wing it when things get tough.
