The Directing Staff challenge the remaining 11 recruits to stand up and be counted on the fourth phase of the course, as they face a hostage rescue mission hoping to spring two abducted recruits. The second leadership challenge is a punishing head to head team ammunition supply race, requiring grit and determination to get the job over the line.
