Hypodermic danger

CAMP RUDDER, Fla. -- U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Casey Grochowiak, 6th Ranger Training Battalion instructor, shows the fangs of a mature Eastern diamondback rattlesnake during the Ranger Open House May 6. "A largest crowd ever" of people of all ages visited the 6th RTB Rangers as they brought out their equipment for hands-on displays of weapons, diving equipment, Zodiac boat, parachute, medical and a day-in-the-life display for the Ranger training school. The Army's Reptile Team put on a reptile show where people took an up-close look at venomous and non-venomous snakes that could be found just feet from where the spectators were standing. They also put on repelling demonstrations, a downed pilot rescue demonstration and a hand-to-hand combat demonstration. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Mike Meares)
