520    $a "No matter how advanced a military is or how intelligent its members are, the reality is that missions will sometimes fail. The Pararescue units of the U.S. Air Force are responsible for extracting soldiers who are gravely injured or trapped behind enemy lines. Pulled from the Air Force's Special Warfare division, these elite soldiers are not only skilled medics, they're also accomplished survivalists. In this title, readers get a glimpse of what it takes to become a member of a Pararescue squad. The accessible text is paired with engaging sidebars to explain the history and modern operations of this unit"-- $c Provided by publisher.
