Back in '71 we went on a medavac 100 miles down the Baja coast. The guy had a heart attack and was supposed to be on a boat off shore. Got to the location and no boat just a bunch of folks on the beach waving. False info from an American that was living down there to avoid taxes. Anyhow we start loading the guy up and a Federale rolled up. He gets out of the car and he had 2 45s, crossed bandoliers and reached in the seat and got a Thompson. As he started heading our way the guys wife asked if she could go so I literally chunked her up the ladder into the chopper as I was making a one bounce entrance and told the pilot in no uncertain terms Let's go. Now!!! The pilot got a reprimand a couple of months later for landing but we figured we got lucky. Mexico had been know to impound CG aircraft and personnel even when proper permissions were obtained. Only folks I have seen with more "duty" arms has been on movies.
