That mission is a pain in the ass. By far it took me longer than any other mission to get past. First of all, don't sweat it too much if you get detected the stupid Hind won't get back any faster really, it is a scare tactic. I usually set off the alarm on one of the towers anyway (that is a tough short even with the sniper rifle). The part that pissed me off was after you have beaten the Helicopter you are usually scarce on ammo, Hell you mat even be stuck with terrorist weapons by this point, you still have to extract Pickle. I was fuming once as I get to the pass right near the extraction point, amazingly with my team still intact (rare enough as that is on this mission), and I leave Bravo with pickle so I can go up ahead and clear the way without losing the hostage.... I hear Jester say "enemy sighted sir" behind me, and I know my boys will pull through.... 3 secs later "mission failed, your hostage is dead". Fucking stupid rednecks on Bravo!
