I'd not spotted the changed page header picture earlier tonight. I think that the USAF CSAR community would appreciate the words and image. RIP to the 4 people involved.

A harsh reality check of the dangers that airmen face.
May the skies be clear and blue and the wind fair with a guiding star to steer by.
