Just breathe

Airman 1st Class DeMichael Overstreet, 96th Civil Engineer Squadron, dons a respirator mask before moving to put out a simulated engine fire during Nuclear Accident Response Exercise Aug. 11 at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. This exercise assessed the ability of base personnel to support a request from Department of Energy “Safe Haven” and react to an emergency response to a major accident. In the scenario, while securing the vehicles from a DoE convoy on base, the DoE truck experienced an engine fire and two DoE personnel suffered severe burns while trying to extinguish the fire. Emergency personnel responded to the situation, secured the scene, transported the victims and put out the fire. (U.S. Air Force photo/Samuel King Jr.)
