PARARESCURERS







Pararescuemen attached to the 410th Air Expeditionary Wing jump out of a C-130 for a static jump from 800 feet at an undisclosed location in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Pararescue's mission is the recovery of downed aircrew members and or isolated personnel. Using a C-130 to jump in provides pararecue the fastest way to get to the distressed and provide them with medical attention, protection, and survival.
