In October 1983, rebel soldiers take over the island Commonwealth of Grenada. The rebels, emboldened by highly trained Cuban soldiers posing as construction workers, assassinate the Prime Minister and hold hostage Governor-General Paul Scoon, the legitimate head of the Grenadan government, in his residence. The U.S. is asked to send in American troops to liberate the island.

The SEALs swing into action. There is no time to gather intelligence, plan details or rehearse the assignments. In a perfect world, SEAL units try to get in, do their work and leave before the shooting begins. But Grenada is less than a perfect world.

Two military helicopters race through the night carrying the SEAL team over the capital city. Their mission is to seize Government House and rescue the Governor-General. Spotted as they arrive, the helicopters meet fierce enemy fire. Both badly hit, one chopper is ordered back to base, while the other hovers crippled over the firefight. The SEALs quickly drop into the warzone by “fast-roping”, a quick exit procedure where they slide down heavy ropes at breakneck speed. The SEALs land and infiltrate Government House and find Governor-General Scoon inside with his family and staff.

Moments after being attacked by an armored personnel carrier, the SEALs finally make contact with the Air Force AC-130 Spectre gunship that was providing close air support to the mission. With help from the Spectre, the small band of SEALs hold the building even though they are significantly outnumbered and outgunned, repelling the overwhelming ground forces until the Marines arrive the following morning.
