Maj. Chris Slauson, of the 45th Operations Group’s Detachment 3, discusses radio operations with Master Sgt. Jesse Stoda, of the 308th Rescue Squadron, aboard an Alaska Air National Guard C-17 Globemaster III Jan. 14, 2016, at Patrick Air Force Base, Fla. The Airmen worked together during a training event to exercise the capability of pararescuemen jumping out of C-17s to rescue distressed astronauts in the Atlantic Ocean. Their goal was to verify radio transmission and reception distances between the airborne aircraft and the astronaut in the water.
