Airman 1st Class Franscisco Harper, left, and a pararescue Airman survey the area as U.S. Air Force pararescue forces parachute into the Pacific Ocean to aid to two critically injured sailors aboard a Venezuelan fishing boat May 3, 2014. The pararescue Airmen flew in two HC-130J Combat King II aircraft and three HH-60 Pavehawk helicopters for nearly 11 hours, and then parachuted into the ocean along with two inflatable zodiac boats and medical equipment to deliver lifesaving care. Harper is a loadmaster assigned to the 79th Rescue Squadron and the pararescue Airmen involved in the operation are from the 48th Rescue Squadron. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
