6 Pararescuemen PJ’s that Risked it all | Air Force Medical Heroes March 5, 2020 Unipro2013main Featured Military Videos </p> <h2>United States Air Force Special Operations</h2> <p> Pararescuemen (also known as PJs) are United States Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) and Air Combat Command (ACC) operators tasked with recovery and medical treatment of personnel in humanitarian and combat environments. These special operations units are also used to support NASA missions and have been used to recover astronauts after water landings. They are attached to other special operations units from all branches to conduct other operations as appropriate. Of the roughly 200 Air Force Cross recipients, only 24 are enlisted rank, of which 12 are Pararescuemen. Part of the little-known Air Force Special Operations community and long an enlisted preserve, the Pararescue service expanded to include Combat Rescue Officers early in the 21st century.<br /> </p> <p>Credit to : Matsimus</p> <p> Please support our Sponsors here :
