Episode Summary:

In this episode, Heather "Lucky" Penney talks combat search and rescue (CSAR) with Col. Michael "Mongo" Kingry, Deputy Commander of the 31st Fighter Wing at Aviano Air Base. When two F-15E aircrew were shot down deep inside Iran during Operation Epic Fury, the Air Force paused an entire air campaign to bring them home and did so successfully. CSAR matters. It's the product of decades of investment in unique technology, training, tactics, and people. Join us for a deep dive into how a rescue is executed and how the mission is evolving.
