AFRL enhances survival tools for isolated airmen
Ruby Creek Training Area, North of Fairchild AFB. The 'isolated person' communicating on the Combat Survivor Evader Locator radio guides recovery to their location. The rescue asset was inbound and required additional authentication via means of a three-person tall, three-person wide pyramid. All of this was accomplished on a navigation day in survival training. Featured in the photo with students are SERE Specialists Tech. Sgt. Douglas Gassner, Staff Sgt. John Ware, and Staff Sgt. Ryan Torres. (Courtesy photo)
