Are you willing to do whatever it takes to save a person's life? To parachute, scuba dive, rock climb or even snowmobile into hostile territory to get to a wounded Airman who needs your help? Then you may be ready to be a Pararescue specialist. You'll be trained in emergency medical tactics, as well as in combat and survival skills so you can go anywhere necessary. You'll train extensively and be on alert 24 hours a day, because when the call comes, it will be up to you to answer it.
