The Junglas

Former Green Beret Jim Morris goes on a mission with the Colombian anti-narcotics police who ferret out the coca-growing revolutionaries known as FARC in the mountainous Colombian jungles. The anti-narcoterrorist force is known as the Junglas (pronounced Hoon-glas), and with top grade U.S. equipment and training, they are a formidable force indeed. You'll parallel the terrain in a Huey helicopter as the Junglas search for the FARCs hiding under the cover of dense greenery. You'll hear the bullets zing by as you circle around to land, and then you'll watch the Junglas round up their catch--all in a day's work.
