Summary:

The elite Combat Rescue members of the U.S. Air Force, Pararescuemen, or PJs, have one mission: rescue American or Allied forces in extreme danger. Whether their targets are shot down or isolated behind enemy lines, engaged, wounded, or captured by the enemy, PJs will do whatever necessary to bring those in peril home. For the first time ever, camera crews go on a deployment to Afghanistan with this team, as they fly day and night, in any weather, to save those in danger on the battlefield.
