Sorties across the stratosphere

Lt. Col. David, an expeditionary reconnaissance squadron U-2S pilot, adjusts his full-pressure suit helmet at an undisclosed location in Southwest Asia, Aug. 7, 2015. U-2 pilots are required to wear the specialized suit due to the high altitudes they fly at, typically above 70,000 feet. The physiological support detachment team is responsible for maintaining the suit, ensuring it functions properly and assisting pilots with donning the gear. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt.
