"Crashing through the Skies, Comes the fearful cry: COBRA!" Night Vultures are the airborne covert insertion and recon specialists of the Cobra legions. Given no formal training, the canidates for the Night Vultures' program are dropped with their gliders from transports over shark-infested waters at least five miles from land. Whoever makes it back is awarded the Night Vulture badge and gets to keep the personal effects of the "drop-outs!"
