Senior Airman Garrett and Airman 1stClass Christian, both are expeditionary reconnaissance squadron physiology support technicians, assist Lt. Col. David, an ERS U-2S pilot, with donning a full-pressure suit 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 typically fly at. 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.
