Tech Sgt. Shane Brickey, an evaluater and pararescueman with the 88th Test and Evaluation Squadron, pauses during training for a portrait next to a rigid inflatable boat, which will be used to pick up the "Front Porch" floatation device after a jump. This piece of Ground Support Equipment (GSE) can be used to support astronauts who have made a water landing in the Orion spacecraft following a flight.
