An Alaska Air National Guard HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopter assigned to the 210th Rescue Squadron approaches Malemute Drop Zone during a capabilities exercise at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, June 25, 2024. The Pave Hawk is the 176th Wing’s primary platform for personnel extraction since the all-weather helicopter can land in a variety of austere locations, and the crew can employ the rescue hoist when landing is not possible. The 210th, along with the 211th and 212th RQSs, make up the 176th Wing Rescue Triad and are among the busiest combat search and rescue units in the world.
