Locals has increased my livestreaming capabilities here to a full hour - up from the 30 mins we have been working with up to this point! This is great news for us here in the community! I hope to use this new extended time as a means of attracting more folks into our community here.
The way I intend to do this is by closing down livestreams early for folks on YouTube & Rumble and dedicating the final 20 minutes or so exclusively to those here in our Locals community.
Very appreciative to @Locals. They’ve always treated me very well and reasonably.
What's happening right now inside Iran to find the missing pilot...
Somewhere in southern Iran, an American weapons systems officer is on the ground, trained to hide, survive, and wait.
Every fighter pilot prepares for this moment through a program called SERE: Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape.
They carry survival gear, specialized radios, and the training to use both.
The protocol: eject safely, find cover, go dark, transmit your location to friendlies, and stay hidden from everyone else.
A former CENTCOM commander said nightfall is an advantage because U.S. rescue teams own the dark.
Above, HH-60 Pave Hawks and HC-130s are running search patterns.
A-10s and fighters fly cover to suppress threats.
AWACS relay real-time airspace data to everyone involved.
The terrain could help.
Iran has vast remote areas with natural cover.
But food, water, injuries, and Iranian search parties are working against the clock.
No American troops are on the ground.
Everything ...
