    Alaska Air National Guard rescue personnel assigned to the 212th Rescue Squadron perform a rescue hoist during a capabilities exercise at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, June 25, 2024. Combat rescue officers, pararescuemen, and search, evasion, resistance, and escape specialists of the 212th RQS – known collectively as Guardian Angels – are experts in personnel recovery operations and are trained to infiltrate behind enemy lines to extract isolated U.S. and allied personnel. The 212th, along with the 210th and 211th RQSs, make up the 176th Wing Rescue Triad and are among the busiest combat search and rescue units in the world.
