Firefighters from the 47th Civil Engineer Squadron spray water at a simulated engine cell on an aircraft live fire simulator at Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas, Oct. 15, 2024. When fighting the fire, the variable nozzle on the hose will be used to adjust how the stream of water lands on the fire, this can include a large cone of water to a tight jet to blast particular areas.

Packing parachutes, protecting pilots

Roger Gloria, 47th Operations Support Squadron (OSS) aircrew flight equipment parachute rigger, left, compresses a parachute into its housing at Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas, Oct. 3, 2024. Parachutes will be compressed multiple times for 12 hours or more during the repacking process, and this procedure ensures that the parachute will take up as little of the valuable space inside the aircraft as needed.
