DARIEN PROVINCE, Re- public of Panama — Deep in the jungles of Panama, Na- tional Border Service agents, also known as SENAFRONT, await in a clearing, anticipating construction supplies that will help them as they prepare to take down illicit drug and hu- man trafficking networks that span the Americas. The dense wilderness sur- rounding the agents seems alive — the breeze rustles the trees making them dance, the moun- tains stand tall in the distance guarding over the valley below, and the air is filled with the sounds of nature. A whirring noise appears in the distance, seeming at first to be a trick of the senses. Gradu- ally, the whisper evolves into a roar, overtaking the area as a CH-47 Chinook peeks over the jungle canopy and the clearing erupts into chaos as the strength of the aircraft blades whips up the dust and debris that previ- ously lay stagnant.
