Guys,I just watched the first episode of this show a couple of nights ago,and it's a real winner.

IMHO,it is long past time these guys start to get a little bit of the credit they deserve for all the bravery and dedication they have displayed for decades,as they have winched into jungle and other hot spots while under enemy fire everywhere our men have been sent to fight,in order to rescue pilots and other air crew that were shot down behind enemy lines.

People tend to not even consider the USAF when it comes to ground combat,but let me tell you these guys are a match for anybody in any branch of the military when it comes to courage,skills,and dedication to duty.

Episode 1 airs again tonight at 8 PM,tomorrow morning at 1 AM,and Monday night at 6 PM.

All on Direct tv channel 276,or where ever the National Geographic Channel comes on your system.

Highly recommended!

This is not your typical reality tv because it is IN FACT reality. Unscripted,and the camera crews just ride along when they are called out to rescue somebody. The people you see them rescue that are wounded are really wounded. Subscribe to *Military or Vets Affairs*

Thanks for the preview. I got rid of cable/satellite over a year ago.

What types of aircraft do they normally use for their rescues? I'll guess helicopters.

They used to use MH-53 Pave Lows but the Air Force retired them about five yeas ago or so. Not sure what they use now. My brother spent his entire 23 years in the Air Force as a Pave Low crew chief (they call them fight engineers) based out of either Hurlbert Field in Florida or Kirkland, AFB in New Mexico. Their mission was to support not only para-rescue but the entire specops community, especially in Iraq and Afghanistan.
