Pararescuemen hone skills in Bagram’s excess structure

Airmen assigned to the 83rd Expeditionary Rescue Squadron breach a door and prepare to clear a room during a mission rehearsal in an excess structure here Aug. 26, 2014. The event allowed pararescuemen from the 83rd Expeditionary Rescue Squadron to hone their breaching, clearing, patient care and egress skills. Air Force rescue forces conduct combat search and rescue and personnel recovery operations. Brady and Schalin are deployed from Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., and Lee is an Air National Guardsmen deployed from the 123rd Special Tactics Squadron, Louisville, Ky. The 83rd ERQS partnered with Joint Task Force Trailblazer, U.S. Army 2nd Engineer Brigade, to use the structure prior to its scheduled deconstruction. Task Force Trailblazer is currently demolishing 50-70 wooden structures here each week as part of Operation Enduring Freedom retrograde operations. (U.S. Air Force photo by Maj.
