There's a simple reason why the Air Force invests so much time, money and effort molding PARARESCUEMEN into the most intensely trained warriors in the world. It's because their lives and the lives of others literally depend on it. Within the stories below, you'll read how the "pipeline" pays off when the chips are down. In these stories, you'll discover how each rescuer embodies the spirit of the PARARESCUEMAN's code: "It is my duty as a PARARESCUEMAN to save life and aid injured. I will be prepared at all times to perform my assigned duties quickly and efficiently, placing these duties before personal desires and comforts. These things I do, that others may live."
