A pararescueman takes a leap from an HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopter into the water. Pararescuemen can rescue individuals from almost anywhere: water, behind enemy lines, mountaintops and flood zones. They were instrumental in the rescue efforts in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. Always men, pararescuemen are also known as “para-jumpers” or “PJs.” Their motto is “that others may live.”
