Gearing up
Senior Airman Ronald Haynes, a firefighter with the 919th Civil Engineer Squadron, tightens down his gas mask before entering a simulated burning building during a fire exercise March 7 at Duke Field. The exercise, performed as part of the Unit Compliance Inspection, had the firefighters secure the scene, put out the fire, evacuate victims and set up a triage. The entire scenario lasted less than 15 minutes, with two teams entering the building and evacuating two simulated victims. U.S. Air Force photo / Staff Sgt. Samuel King Jr.
