How a US airman was rescued behind enemy lines in Iran

About this episode

Last Friday, an American F-15E fighter jet was hit by incoming fire and crashed inside Iran. One of the two crew members was quickly rescued. According to the Wall Street Journal, what came next was “one of the most complex search-and-rescue efforts for the US Air Force in enemy territory in decades.” Sunday morning, President Trump announced that the “highly respected colonel” had been rescued and is safe. Why would the US go to such lengths to recover a single pilot? The answer says much about our nation’s past and our collective future.
