Special operations forces and support helicopter landing zones are generally covert. FP [force protection] is achieved by employing use of terrain and CCD [camouflage, concealment and deception] procedures. The FP presence must be balanced with the need to preserve operational secrecy. FP will normally be provided by the SOF [special operations force] units that are being supported. In the event of ground attack, the task of FP will be to warn landing zone personnel and to delay the attackers until the helicopters are able to depart.  1, record 1, English, - special%20operations%20forces%20and%20support%20helicopter%20landing%20zone

[Les] zones de poser pour les forces d’opérations spéciales et les hélicoptères de soutien [...] sont en général secrètes. On effectue la PF [protection des forces] en faisant appel aux caractéristiques du terrain et aux procédures CCD [camouflage, dissimulation et déception]. La PF doit être équilibrée avec la nécessité de préserver le secret de l'opération. La PF est normalement assurée par les unités de la FOS [force d’opérations spéciales] qui sont appuyées. En cas d’attaque au sol, la PF a pour tâche d’alerter le personnel de la zone de poser et de retarder les attaquants jusqu'à ce que les hélicoptères puissent quitter.  1, record 1, French, - zone%20de%20poser%20pour%20les%20forces%20d%26rsquo%3Bop%C3%A9rations%20sp%C3%A9ciales%20et%20les%20h%C3%A9licopt%C3%A8res%20de%20soutien

Directed from the White House basement, members of Ronald Reagan's staff shipped arms to Iran in the same freewheeling style they used in their dealings with the Nicaraguan Contras.
