Pararesuemen fill Eloy skies with chutes

A pararescueman assigned to the 306th Rescue Squadron descends on Eloy, Ariz., during training May 14. Air Force pararescuemen, also known as PJs, are the only Department of Defense elite combat forces specifically organized, trained, equipped and postured to conduct full-spectrum personnel recovery to include both conventional and unconventional combat rescue operations. These battlefield Airmen are the most highly trained and versatile personnel recovery specialists in the world. Pararescue is the nation's force of choice to execute the most perilous, demanding and extreme rescue missions anytime, anywhere across the globe. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt.
