The two top teams from the 2011 Firefighter Challenge battle during a water joust event Oct. 15, 2011, at the Transit Center at Manas, Kyrgyzstan. The water joust pitted the civil engineers “Team Thundercat” against “Team RED HORSE” -- the civil engineers took the best two out of three attempts. The winning team members each received $50 and a Manas Fire Department T-shirt. According to Transit Center Fire Chief George Parker, “Although the civil engineers did win outright with a time of 11:46:03, the time had been reduced to 11:16:03 because they won the water joust. The joust cut 30 seconds off the original Firefighter Challenge time. RED HORSE came in second with a time of 11:46:56. It was an even match and the closest in the past four years.” (U.S. Air Force photo/Maj. Bob Everdeen)
