174. ALASKA JUMP MISSION: Bear Mauling – AF Special Warfare

174. ALASKA JUMP MISSION: Bear Mauling

Yesterday two PJs from the 212th RQS on their State wide alert jumped from a  C-130 to a hunter who was mauled by a grizzly bear and severely injured.  

Care under fire was translated to risk of further bear attack, then prolonged TACEVAC to a hospital.  Hear about the unique issues of this mission and translating MARCH PAWS to a civil SAR for a severely injured patient.
