Line 3:
** Maybe the most amazing tactic in the film comes from a sniper who takes out an enemy on a small dock, who falls into the hands of a submerged SEAL to pull the carcass underwater without making a sound. That got a round of appluase from this troper's screening.
** As a measure of how awesome that scene was, not only is it the point the trailer kicks into high gear, it's on the first page of the book.
* Chief Dave's [[One -Man Army|solo assault]] on the jihadists & their cartel allies into the cartel tunnels, fueled by [[Tranquil Fury]]. He attacks until his rifle is shot out of his hands; he pulls his pistol and returns fire with a shot-up hand. Even after taking a full burst of fire to the chest, ''he doesn't stop fighting'', even as he is ''bleeding to death.''
** What makes it even more awesome is that it was based on a real-life account.
