The after-action reports confirm that the four or five PCFs were at the time moving a Mobile Strike Force of about 20. I believe that Rassman was described as an advisor to the MSF.

Jim Rassman's ODA was probably on there because SF A teams don't have organic boat assets and were using the Swifties because they had no other means of getting where they needed to go. Also, it is my understanding that the engagement with Kerry getting the Bronze Star took place during the day, which leads me to believe the insertion mission was either a large infantry force led by the SF guys, or a civic action type mission for which SF is well known.
