38, 41 RQS conduct alternate insertion extraction training

Two U.S. Air Force 38th Rescue Squadron pararescuemen descend from a 41st Rescue Squadron HH-60W Jolly Green II during alternate insertion extraction training at Moody Air Force Base, Georgia, Sept. 23, 2021. The four most common methods used during AIE are fast-rope, rope ladder, rappel and hoist. Part of PJ’s mission is to rescue and recover downed aircrews from hostile or austere locations. Regular AIE training prepares them for future contingencies. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Melanie A. Bulow-Gonterman)
