U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Kyle Bailey, left, 100th Civil Engineer Squadron Fire Department incident commander, and Staff Sgt. Joseph Baronak, 100th CES Fire Department safety officer, go through checklists and talk with other first responders and wing agencies to ensure procedures are carried out safely during an aircraft mishap exercise at Royal Air Force Mildenhall, England, July 23, 2024. The scenario involved a KC-135 Stratotanker taxiing back to its hardstand being hit by a van pulling out of a hangar, with the driver not paying attention. The exercise simulated that the van hit the number one engine of the jet. Realistic training is a vital part of the U.S. Air Force's readiness and tests units' abilities to accomplish the mission.
