Not a picture, but your imaginations will paint one reading this. One of the most badass battles of this generation and it included just about every major special operations unit you can think of minus the SEALs.

How a 4-Hour Battle Between Russian Mercenaries and U.S. Commandos Unfolded in Syria


American warplanes arrived in waves, including Reaper drones, F-22 stealth fighter jets, F-15E Strike Fighters, B-52 bombers, AC-130 gunships and AH-64 Apache helicopters. For the next three hours, American officials said, scores of strikes pummeled enemy troops, tanks and other vehicles. Marine rocket artillery was fired from the ground.

I hope they make a movie of it even though it wouldn't make for much of a dramatic movie, just an ass kicking lol. You had Delta, Rangers, and TACPs at the refinery and then SF and Marine Raiders as QRF with artillery Marines lighting up the area. There was another article I read after it happened that talked about the radio chatter from the Wagner guys in the following days. They were talking about how they had no idea who was dead or alive, people had gone UA, and that they had essentially been destroyed. They talked about how they were sold out by the Russian government and had no idea who they were really trying to attack.

Thats a perfect storyline for a movie, if they do it I sure hope the budget is there
