Kentucky Air Guardsmen deploy for Hurricane Harvey rescue operations


Kentucky Air Guardsmen conduct Hurricane Harvey rescue operations in Texas

Airmen from the Kentucky Air National Guard prepare their equipment in Houston, Texas, Aug. 29, 2017, before conducting water rescue missions in the wake of Hurricane Harvey. The Airmen, assigned to the 123rd Special Tactics Squadron, are patrolling the area in motorboats, looking for people who are trapped in their homes or on rooftops because of the massive flooding. Once the residents are safely in the boats, the Airmen provide any necessary medical care and transport them to the nearest shelter. (U.S. Air National Guard photo)
