U.S. Marine Corps Pfc. Damon Mangels, a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear defense specialist with Marine Wing Support Squadron 172, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, dons a mission-oriented, protective-posture suit to prepare a decontamination line during a Base Recovery After Attack and Airfield Damage Repair training exercise on Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, Feb. 4, 2024. This training event simulated how the joint-force would operate in the event of a foreign attack on U.S. military-owned airfields in Okinawa. MWSS-172 employed the use of explosive ordnance disposal, engineer, maintenance, and communication teams within their squadron for damage assessment and recovery. Mangels is a native of Texas.
