This will not stay up long. It is graphic and heartbreaking.

On October 4 2017, three US special forces troops (service branch unknown but likely army)
were gunned down during a well-executed ambush by Islamic State-affiliated terrorists in western Africa.
ISIS militants achieved full surprise over their American opponents on the point of contact,
getting the jump on the small special forces fire team during the earliest phase of the clashes.
Possibly due to the fact it was outnumbered and lacked fire support (including basic weapons like mortars),
the US special forces unit was never able to regain any kind of tactical initiative.
As shown in the video below, the eventual death of the first US operative prompted a rout of the remaining two soldiers
who were eventually hunted down and killed.
It appears that efforts to call for helicopter evacuation (using Red smoke) were carried out in vain.

Bring them home.
