Can't finish a mission

OK, got it! It’s like having pieces of a puzzle and trying to put them together–blind.
The manual had me thinking I’m picking up survivors from a surface battle, and when I saw what looked like fires from burning oil slicks, I began looking for life boats. So, now, it’s red smoke from flares, with pilots bobbing up and down in a storm at night. Hmmmm. Bit of a problem here: the pilot is being sucked below the surface just as I’m bringing my cross-hairs to bear, but when he gets clear again, waves wash over my binocs, and he disappears. Yeah, it’s a realistic situation, but I don’t think this guys going to survive much longer, if he hasn’t drowned already. War is Hell. Thanks to everyone for helping out.
