Rescue triad spreads their wings

Two U.S. Air Force Airmen assigned to the 31st Rescue Squadron, prepare to retrieve a parachute during water search and rescue training off the coast of Okinawa, Japan, July 20, 2023. An HC-130J Combat King II assigned to the 79th Rescue Squadron completed the rescue triad of a deployment aircraft, Guardian Angels in the water, and HH-60G Pave Hawks circling for retrieval. All three elements ensure maximum efficiency for this complicated movement. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Alexis Redin)
