Angels in the Air: 36th Rescue Squadron Airmen Answer the Call in Cliffside Rescue

Members of the 36th Rescue Squadron stand in front of the sign that annotates the amount of saves the squadron has had since its formation in 1971 at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington, June 30, 2025. The 36th RQS lowered a medic and airlifted the patient from the mountain to a safe landing zone before he was taken to the hospital by ambulance, marking the 716th save of the rescue squadron.
