U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Justin Felix, 38th Rescue Squadron independent duty medical technician, left, and Senior Airman Cameron Romanac, 38th RQS aircrew flight equipment journeyman, stuff a parachute into a bag during water jump training for the 38th RQS pararescuemen on 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. AFE and IDMT supported the training by ensuring the drop zone was safe to conduct the jumps, retrieve the parachutes from the water and to stand by in the event of an emergency.
