53E Super Stallion  helicopters were used for the sequence of rescuing Fowler from the  wrecked motorcade. The mission conducted by the Marines in this  scene is what to expect when executing a TRAP (Tactical Recovery of  Aircraft and/or Personnel). TRAP missions are most likely to be  assigned to a Marine Expeditionary Unit. All  Phil Alden Robinson (qv) had to do was point at the overturned  limo and say "The President is in that car!"
