In the Kosovo conflict I was at HQ 5ATAF as a Combat Survival Officer. What they wanted was Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR).
When a certain F117 driver ejected the response was Homeric. Satellites were moved. Eagles put up a counter air. Warthogs were on area denial. Pave Lows with Trap teams on board arrived and the whole thing rolled out on rails.
I salute the merlins but we don't do stuff like that.
