Plot
After a successful amphibious insertion, a small group of U.S. Marines prepare for combat against local rebels on the island of Mindanao in the southern Philippines. The U.S. Marine Corps force on the island is commanded by Gen. Frank Lewis (Rutger Hauer). While making a routine fly-by, a UH-1 Huey helicopter carrying Philippine troops and Marines, including USMC Captain Amy Jennings (Theresa Randle) and Philippine Major Aguinaldo (Ricardo Cepeda), is shot down by the rebels. Jennings and Aguinaldo escape the wreckage, and try to flee from the pursuing rebels.
A rescue team is dispatched to save Jennings and Aguinaldo, but is shot down by anti-aircraft fire.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “The Hunt for Eagle One” as 2006 film by Brian Clyde. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the arts & letters register because the source frames it as 2006 film by Brian Clyde. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2357390. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2006.
Titles can refer to several editions, objects or performances, making precise identification essential before interpretation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
