Firefighters ‘hang around,’ train for rescues

Team Mildenhall firefighters prepare to rappel from a water tower Sept. 4, 2013, on RAF Mildenhall, England. Rappelling involves at least two people, one of which performs the actual rappelling, while the other feeds a safety line down in case the person rappelling begins to fall. Rappelling is used in real-world operations to rescue victims in areas where conventional means are not available. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Dillon Johnston/Released)
