First: I would mess myself...a lot.
Second: I would mess myself again...a lot.
Third: I would pray that steps one and two would keep the bad boys on the shore!!
Last: Curse the pilot for missing the LZ !

Heck, kinda reminds me of the trailing edge of Yomaton DZ on OKI. Except the area had AF security dogs in it. 
Heck, Even about the same size area.

I was just wondering who had trained the gators/crocs to be lined up along the edge like synchronized swimmers.

Sure, but it wouldn't it be tough hanging up the Tiger-pelt shirt and Grizzly bear pants, TS?
