Several packed and unpacked drag parachutes sit inside of the aircrew flight equipment’s building ready for upcoming B-52 Stratofortress missions in support of Operation Inherent Resolve June 15, 2016, at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar. Airmen who work with B-52 Stratofortress drag chutes go through a two-week training course either at Barksdale Air Force Base, La., or Minot Air Force Base, N.D., to broaden their knowledge of how to successfully perform their detail-oriented task of piecing together parachutes that are used in B-52s. The AFE facility is a large part of the success to making sure each mission has the critical life support and survival equipment needed to handle emergencies and ensure the survival of isolated aircrew.
