2:17 am
40% of the streetlights in detroit, at one point, did not work. you had some blocks and you had major thoroughfares and corridors that were just totally pitch black. those things had to change. we wanted to restore our lighting system in the city. you can have the greatest dreams in the world, but unless you can finance those dreams, it doesn't happen. at the time that the bankruptcy filing was done, the public lighting authority had a hard time of finding a bank. citi did not run away from the table like some other bankers did. citi had the strength to help us go to the credit markets and raise the money. it's a brighter day in detroit. people can see better when they're out doing their tasks, young people are moving back in town, the kids are feeling safer while they walk to school. and folks are making investments and the community is moving forward. 40% of the lights were out, but they're not out for long.they're coming back.
2:19 am
while they were jogging up, rone calls me on the cell phone, tells me youp need to get back to base and just stay away from the consulate. she's trying to say her good-byes. and i'm like, we need to go now. and -- like any good case officer, she's trying to gather information, i look add her, said you're in my world, now, you need to get quiet. let me do what i need to do.
2:20 am
>> you have been back on the compound for a while. you said before you felt like you wanted to be with your team. but you also knew you had a job to do there. >> i knew i was the only one, we had two sight security officers. they were a great help. but from the gr's side, i was the one that was there. >> the guys come back, first, the armored car came up. >> i could hear when they were leave iing, they announced it o the radio. and knew where they were at just from the direction and then they're calling as they're coming in, coming in hot. which means they're coming in fast. have the gate open. you hear that. the sound of the tires just you know, they're on rug slots, but you still thaer that sound coming through. both sides in the front windshield, well shot up.
2:21 am
you could see the look an their face, scott got out, he looked, still blocked almost from head to toe. i told him to get inside, get some medical help. i told him to get up on various buildings and we had one get up on each side and i had one up on this building. they knew where they needed to go. so, each one of them went to their pre position. preplanned positions. jack is up on this roof. rooms up here. or tom and db are here. take it over in this corner. i'm over here. >> you guys are exhausted. >> some probably had smoke inhalation and you're preparing
2:22 am
maybe for another fight. >> just gut feeling we're going to get attacked and my adrenaline went back up. >> showed up, started hearing tires screeching over in this area and we started asking over the radio to the tl, you know, if that 17 is coming over to assist us and then the response was they're not sure. so, we immediately assume that anything that's coming in is coming in that are bad guys. >> i asked the status of the specter gun ship and came across the radio. >> i was expecting some kind of air support. i guess the bad guys down. >> that would have been nice. i want to put this back up here, just so you can describe what's outside the annex that you're most concerned about. >> stockyards.
2:23 am
this is very, lot of concealm t concealmen concealments, lot of bushes and small trees in this area and this is what we call zombie land. right at this intersection. >> starting to stage here. here, this whole area, it's just a big open parking lot. here's the house that you're seeing people start to go into. they can come into here, it gives them access to our -- >> so, you're watching these cars and the people going into this house that you don't really know if it's bad guys or not and what's the engagement? wait until they fire on you? >> wait until we see action from them that specifies attacking us. we're going to attack us, i'm not going to wait to get hit before i hit back. we start seeing movement coming from this direction. through the vision goggles.
2:24 am
the caveat here is this house, kids in here that would come and pester us every once in a while. i don't want to shoot somebody that doesn't have it coming to them and definitely don't want to shoot a child. they were just starting to move up on us and db says i got movement. >> are you glazing them? zpl oh, yeah, i've got my laser and i am laziing targets. people i see, on the radio, said you see what i'm saying? >> now, can they see it? >> no, only the night people. >> at this point, when they're moving up, in my mind, they're getting ready. we're going to engage them, just let them get as close as possible and take them out. first thing they fire, rpg and it went flying over the compound. db's head. >> bringing a water to, i got right about here about the corner.
2:25 am
so, it goes off. >> to me, it was just, okay, it's on and just started fighting. started lighting them up. just shooting targets. >> fire fight starts. what does that look like? >> gorgeous, awesome. >> with the lasers dancing back and forth from target to target. you see three, four sets of lasers just bouncing back and forth taking up targets and you'll see a flash of light, which is the enemy shooting at you and hearing the rounds going past your head and you're just really engaging in spots. >> anybody take a hit? >> yeah, me and tig were up in this corner and they were trying to shoot out the lights and secondary from one of the rounds hitting the wall. cut me across the top, bridge of the nose.
2:26 am
>> so, you pushed back. obviously took down a lot of people. it stops. >> to me, it's how i explain it. all right, good deal. moral goes up. i think we can all feel it. it still wasn't over. we're going to see our defenses and they're going to be coming back. there was a big break there. >> two hours. at what point did you hear about ambassador stevens? >> there was a ds agent and he got a phone call and that's how we found out that he was at the hospital. >> by 1:00 a.m., local looters and curiosity seekers had entered the consulate grounds and infiltrated the safe haven. six apparently good samaritans come across an unreassponsive m.
2:27 am
he's worked on before being declared dead. they have scott's phone, which had been given to ambassador stevens during the attack. calling wickland's stored numbers, someone gets to the american embassy in tripoli and says a man has been found and he's dead. the caller provides a description. matching ambassador chris stevens. >> there's a car pulls up and >> there's the car pulls up and parks right here. a guy comes around from the side of the car. and he's reaching like he's throwing something. and right as he brings his arm back to throw, i engage him. i move and shoot him two to three times. he goes down and whatever he threw landed just short of our back gate and exploded. which then engaged again and was the signal. >> this was bigger.
2:28 am
and it was larger force coming through. i mean, i'd say 20 cars. >> again, just -- taking him out. >> like ducks in a row at a shooting gallery. hit one guy in the head and drop him. >> it's a burst of fire. >> they were kind of spraying. just constantly spraying. we were going controlled bursts. it's not the movies. you don't flip it on full and go after it because you can't hit anything. you're aiming. a single shot. you're shooting, shooting, shooting until they turn and run. so, you've taken fire, r p pgs. are you worried something heavier's coming? zpl after the second, yes. >> you're waiting for a third. >> waiting for something bigger. plaque psoriasis...
2:30 am
...isn't it time to let the... ...real you shine... ...through? introducing otezla, apremilast. otezla is not an injection, or a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. some people who took otezla saw 75% clearer skin after 4 months. and otezla's prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't take otezla if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. otezla may increase... ...the risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression... ...or suicidal thoughts, or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss.
2:31 am
your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. side effects may include diarrhea, nausea, upper respiratory tract infection, and headache. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, and if you're pregnant or planning to be. ask your doctor about otezla today. otezla. show more of you. i built my business with passion. but i keep it growing by making every dollar count. that's why i have the spark cash card from capital one. i earn unlimited 2% cash back on
2:32 am
everything i buy for my studio. ♪ and that unlimited 2% cash back from spark means thousands of dollars each year going back into my business... that's huge for my bottom line. what's in your wallet? during that second during that second attack, that's when i actually finally got a chance to sit down. all you can what was the last conversation that i had with my spouse or my kids? was it good, bad? >> what was yours? >> it was good. especially overseas, you want to make the last conversation always good. >> when was it? >> the night before. so, i knew i had spoken with with them and hey, that's it. get them out your head. it's time to back on the job. >> just come back up and we'd
2:33 am
been sitting up there talking because we both had young kids. >> rone had extended, but looking with authority. >> because he wanted to get to see his baby. had twins. >> every day and two or three times a day, we would skype and send photos and videos of the twins when i was expecting a phone call and didn't get one, that's when i would start to worry a little bit. >> we always e-mailed or talked on the phone and he would always call around 3:00, 4:00 p.m., our time, always. if he didn't, i knew why. >> we'd talk every day when time would allow and most often, the same time every day. if he didn't call me, you know,
2:34 am
at the time he was supposed to call me, i would begin to worry. >> it's one of the reasons i'm fighting. it's one of the reasons i'm doing what i do. not only for the people here, for the family back home, but primarily, you're thinking about the team. they're family. we're all family now. we're all brothers and that's the way it is. you're thinking of this family here as much that family there. >> most of the people are staged here and so i ended up on top of the command center in building c had with rone at this point. more cars come by. what happens now? >> we don't know what they're doing. guys lost, still trying to probe us. >> there's a guy with a cell phone. >> yeah. just walked up, cell phone and walked back. and he was getting gps coordinates with his phone. >> again, just another thing, i want to shoot him, but is he swrus some guy taking a walk?
2:35 am
weird things are still happening. we're trying to think moral's up, we're out of this. we're good. them off again. i was expecting, you know, more i was expecting more cars. it was actually the first was quite small. honestly, just happy to see him. three of the guys i had worked with before, so i recognized them off the bat. >> including again. >> yeah. >> connection with rone. with jack. and you had worked -- >> just done a trip in tripoli before benghazi. i just knew bug from contracting. >> so, they come in, they go to building c. and you guys are still kind of waiting. >> the aircraft they had wasn't big enough to take us all back. so, they were going to take the nonshooting personnel and get them out. >> to the airport. >> we were going to stay there and hold the alamo.
2:36 am
>> literally. >> i think they probably had been there about an hour. we were talking about that, wondering what's taken so long, why aren't we getting out of here. the sun was starting to come up, but better be ready for another attack because this is when it's going to come. it was about that time that glenn come up on the roof. >> got the ladder. >> come over and was talking to rone and rone had introduced me to bug. i had never worked with him before. said bug's a sniper. well hopefully, we ain't going to need you, but i'm glad to have another shooter up here. glenn, bug turned and was walking back towards the front of the building an almost immediately, a mortar come in and landed on top of the wall right there. what i heard it and i didn't know i heard it, basically sounded like when a rocket goes off. small arms fire started coming
2:37 am
from this direction. rone had a machine gun and he stood in probably like a three quarter cross position and just started laying down hay. through this avenue of approach from here. i started to engage with him. i ran out of ammo. knelt down, changed magazines and right as i'm coming up and i start to reengage, another mortar hits. almost to the center of the building here. and that one, it knocked me back and that's what hit rone. rone was standing to my left. i got knocked back and as i stood back up, i saw him out of the corner of my eye and he was in a fetal position in the corner right here. i stand up and try to reengage with my rifle and i bring my hand up and from here down is hanging off at a 90 degree angle. >> your hand is just hanging. >> yeah.
2:38 am
i just keep trying to bring it up and it won't stay. can't make it work and that's when the second round hit. that's when i saw bug go down about right here. i wasn't sure if he was hit or just taking cover. and then i turned back and again try to engage and get my hand to come up and a third round hits in the same vicinity and at that point, i just felt like i got stung by a thousand bees up and down my side. i figure i better get to some cover now in case another one comes and the whole night went quiet after that. >> tough to talk about? >> yeah. yeah, just a little. but you know, it's what has to be done. i mean, you're in a fight. you got to stay in the fight. that's the only thing i could think of. nose down, somebody needs to contain firing.
2:39 am
>> and you see this mortar attack. what are you doing? >> i'm still, over here on tower three. still covering this area. to me, it looked like it hit right around here. we have no cover for mortar attacks. even the buildings, i'm surprised one didn't collapse. >> another explosion hits right here. when i heard another thump. that's when i jumped off the tower and moved back. got somewhere under here. and that's when the mortar hit and once that hit, it just, it was pitch-black and dead quiet. jack came over and said, hey, man, there's no movement and that's when i sprinted to the ladder and then just kind of skivvied up as fast as i could, jufred over the pit and that's when i saw dave off to my left.
2:40 am
looked like somebody in the center, then a couple of other people over here, but still a lot of smoke. smoke was still up there from just the debris kind of settling down and so, i moved over to dave. i find a tourniquet because dave's leg was frit much severed off. just barely hanging on by a thread and same with his arm. >> so, got the tourniquets on him. called back on the radio, hey, i need help up here. i need help. i heard noise, so i moved over to where the noise was and it was -- >> i was trying to get a tourniquet out to put on myself -- >> your hand is still flopped out. >> just tryinging to fix my arm. just kept grabbing it, trying to put it back in place and -- >> just sitting there hey, check this out and his arm, dude, stop. you're going to make it worse. >> so, i -- had his tourniquet,
2:41 am
reached down, grabbed it, threw it on him. >> he asked me if i could get down or to the lad e, yeah, i'm going to have to because i knew there was others that were down. >> you're pretty banged up. >> just a little by. got hit in the chest, up and down my side. hit in the throat. and i guess i'll have to and so, i hooked my top arm around the top rung of the ladder and just climbed over and was concentrating on thinking if i fall now, i'm going to break my neck and die and that's the last thing i want to do, so, just concentrating on getting my feet on the raungd sure enough, i slip and i caught myself and pulled myself back up. got down and then was able to inch my way down the ladder. >> after it got eyes up and moving, went straight wback to rone. he was still in in the fetal
2:42 am
position. i rolled him over. there was no response. i ripped off his body armor. and tried you know, got his bat off, took a pulse. couldn't feel nothing. got the flashlight, shining in his eyes, no pupil movements, no dilation. put my ear to his chest, tried to see if his chest was going up and down or if i could hear a heart beat, there was nothing, so i left him, went to the other guy, so i did pretty much the same exact thing. checked him. ripped off his body armor. there was nothing. >> when you realize they're dead, what do you do? >> well, i just kind of said a prayer over each both of them. >> quote is god watch over him, guide him to where he needs to be. take care of his family.
2:43 am
>> so, after that, i kind of, the d boys the whole time, they just want to get everybody off the roof and i when i was doing the prayer, i just ignored them. gathered up everybody's weapons left. >> got to get the bodies off the roof. it's tough. the d boys, pick ed the bodies p and dumped them over the side of the roof. maybe that's not the right description, but they took them. got them off the roof the most expedient manner, just throwing them over the edge of the roof.
