Hero Green Beret Sgt. La David Johnson died going BACK into the kill zone to save comrades... as survivors fought for their lives for TWO HOURS until French fighter jets reached them

Sgt. La David Johnson was in an armed pick-up truck when the ambush started

His vehicle was in front of the Land Cruiser carrying Sgt. Bryan C. Black, Staff Sgt. Jeremiah W. Johnson, Sgt. La David Johnson and Staff Sgt. Dustin M. Wright

Johnson and his vehicle escaped the fire of 50 ISIS militants but then went back

They were trying to save the other four US men when they were all struck

Sgt. La.'s body was eventually given back to Nigerien troops by a village elder

That same village elder is suspected of stalling the troops before the ambush

The October 3 attack in Tongo Tongo, Niger, has been shrouded in secrecy

Sgt. Johnson's widow revealed this week that she still did not know how he died

The new details were revealed on Friday by an unnamed US official

Questions remain over why the lightly armed unit of just 42 soldiers was sent on a dangerous mission to capture an ISIS target with so few men and weapons

The official revealed the men were meant to have back-up but it could not go with them at the last minute

Instead of being called back to base, they were told to proceed with the mission
