Entebbe Raid

I'm speechless, I've never seen a reptile like that.

Ever been to DC?
That Croc with the Pumba in it's mouth is large and in charge.
The Entebbe Airport sits on the northern shores of Lake Victoria, apparently instead of trying to land C-130s on the runways undetected, I read the original plan was to paradrop commandos and Zodiacs into Lake Victoria at night and let them paddle up to the airport for the rescue. Fortunately someone figured out, the size and aggression level of the nocturnal Lake Victoria crocodile population would likely make that plan suboptimal.
