A final farewell
U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Matthew Purol, 38th Rescue Squadron, says his last goodbyes at Moody Air Force Base, Ga., May 24, 2012, before deploying to Afghanistan with a National Geographic video crew that will accompany the unit for the entire deployment. National Geographic arrived the night prior to departure and documented the 38th RQS Airmen’s last moments with their families before leaving.
