38 RQS trains to support SpaceX, Boeing

U.S. Air Force pararescuemen assigned to the 38th Rescue Squadron conduct water jumps into the Banana River near Patrick Space Force Base, Florida, Aug. 24, 2021. The training was designed to prepare pararescuemen for supporting the SpaceX human spaceflight program and Boeing’s spaceflight program. In the event NASA astronauts were to land in the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean during a launch mishap, the 38th RQS could be called upon to rescue them from their capsule.
