Aircrew put to test in SERE training

U.S. Air Force Capt. John Schilling and Staff Sgt. Lindy Snodgrass emerge onto the shore after water survival training in the Charleston Harbor in Charleston, S.C., April 5, 2010. All aircrew members are required to complete Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape training once every three years. The water survival course is designed to teach the aircrew how to survive in the event an aircraft emergency should land them in the water. During the training aircrew members complete numerous grueling tasks, one of which requires them to be drug behind a boat in a parachute harness while they attempting to release themselves and swim to shore. Captain Schilling is a C-17 pilot and Sergeant Snodgrass is a loadmaster; both are with the 15th Airlift Squadron. (U.S. Air Force Photo/Airman 1st Class Lauren Main)
