After being lightly struck by the Mexican's gun, Mason is sent sent flying as if he was pistol whipped. He was lightly hit under the chin after the gun was held to his temple. This may have hurt but would not have sent him flying and not likely result in a cut to the forehead.
After being pistol whipped, Mason is picked up by a helicopter. In the next scene two helicopters are turning away from a military plane in flight and on which Mason is a passenger. The implication is that the helicopter has transferred him to the plane, but this is in fact would be extremely dangerous and unfathomable.
The jeep which transports Mason reads MILITARY POLICE. It has no country designation nor unit ID number. It's also unlikely he would be transported in a military police (MP) vehicle, rather than any other army vehicle.
