The first helicopter suffered a mechanical problem.

CHAMBERS COUNTY, TEXAS (WTVD) -- A helicopter stuck in a muddy field got pulled out...by another helicopter.

A National Guard helicopter was on a training mission Tuesday when it experienced mechanical issues.

When pilots decided to land in a muddy field, the chopper got stuck.

The military used a chinook helicopter to lift the broken chopper to the nearest airport...16 miles away.
