    Default PJs Hell Yeah

    Pararescuemen (PJ)

    "That Others May Live"


    Pararescuemen are some of the world’s best search-and-rescue experts.

    They move forward into areas where a plane has crashed or there is a risk of planes being shot down. Once a plane has hit the ground, they search for the pilots and crew and attempt to recover them. In addition, they perform medical evacuations of injured personnel and civilians.

    To reach downed crews, they train extensively in deploying from helicopters and planes. In order to save injured personnel after recovery, they become medical experts, especially in trauma care.

    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

    "I here repeat, & would willingly proclaim, my unmitigated hatred to Yankee rule—to all political, social and business connections with Yankees, & to the perfidious, malignant, & vile Yankee race."

    Those are the Air Force's badasses.

    I remember taking the test on a Saturday in basic to become a PJ and TacP. 1000M swim, followed by a 2 mile run, then as many push ups, sit ups and pull ups you could do. Looking back I wish I woulda taken the job.

    Delta in a nutshell: Breeding grounds + small wetlands + big blocks of grass cover + predator removal + nesting structures + enough money to do the job= plenty of ducks to keep everyone smiling!
