Exercise Week - Public domain drawing
Summary
Jason Combs and George Gagan, engineer technicians, 88th Civil Engineer Group, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, use geo-mapping during a base exercise Nov. 2, 2015, to mark the locations of various fake body parts found by the search and recovery team. Geomapping, a GPS technology, is used by the record drawings unit within CE and provides real-time, precise locations of features and objects, as well as the topography of the land around the base. As part of the exercises at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, members of an 11-Airman search and recovery team from the 88th Force Support Squadron swept the area for missing individuals following a tornado scenario. The exercise scenario included a wedding at Bass Lake with 45 guests that was interrupted by a tornado. The search and recovery team was called out to do one final sweep after first responders treated and removed casualties. (U.S. Air Force photo by Michelle Gigante
