Background

Jason Keith is an engineer in autonomous machines. He was captured by the Soviets and sent with Colonel Ross to help Colonel Mayorga.

During the events of Airwolf: Season 3 Episode 9 Jennie played by Allan Miller

Stringfellow Hawke and Gustavo reach Jason and he tells them he doesn't want to be rescued unless they can promise that they have enough firepower to get him out. He tells them Colonel Ross moved the ALV's out of camp in preparation for Operation Blackstone. As they are escaping from camp, they are spotted and Colonel Ross and the rest of the camp go after them. Gustavo is shot and Jason tells Hawke they have to leave him or they will be killed. Gustavo agrees with Jason and tells Hawke to leave him as he is needed to fly Airwolf. Hawke and Jason leave Gustavo. As Hawke and Jason take a break, they are ordered to drop their weapons by Jennie Burton and her students. When she realizes Hawke and Jason are Americans, she tells her students to come out of the jungle. She introduces them to her students including, Raf, Irene, Lorena, Clemente, Ayud, Xavier, and Solita. She tells Hawke all of her students are deaf and are learning English. Hawke introduces himself and Jason and Jennie tells him government troops destroyed the children's village when they were out hiking. Hawke hears a group of soldiers coming and tells everyone to get down. Patrol Leader 1 drives up with his platoon, looks around and leaves. Jennie tells Hawke her and the children are heading to Santa Theresa and Hawke offers to escort them, which upsets Jason. Another patrol passes by Hawke and the children. Hawke and the children cross a river and Jason complains about helping the children once more and tells Hawke if all of the children died that day, they could all be replaced, while he couldn't be replaced. Hawke gets upset and tells Jason to go and sit down away from him. They are forced to take cover again when another patrol walks by and a helicopter hovers overhead. Raf saves Jason from being bitten by a bushmaster snake, but Jason blames Raf for pushing him towards it. Hawke and his group are ambushed, but they manage to kill their attackers. An Old Woman leading a cow walks up and exclaims oh my god in Spanish when she sees the children. Hawke and the others reach the village of Santa Teresa. Hawke sees a black stone feature and Jennie tells him it is a relic from a Mayan outpost. The village is suddenly attacked by Colonel Ross and his tanks. Hawke tells Jason to take Jennie to shelter. Jason grabs a rifle as the rebels are quickly being whittled down. Dominic and Caitlin arrive in Airwolf and destroy the tanks and land in Santa Teresa.
