Pararescue and combat control hopefuls

William Martens, right, forces another pull up in the timed stamina test, one of back-to-back stamina tests he and other pararescue and combat control hopefuls took June 19 at Tinker. Mr. Martens isn’t an Airmen yet, but left two years of college behind for the delayed enlistment program and dreams of being a pararescue Airman. “It’s the only thing that’s going to fulfill my life”, he admitted between tests. His recruiter vouched for the man’s passion for the Air Force career, saying he trains six days a week . His efforts paid off this day; he had the highest scores, earning 324 out of 330 possible points. (Air Force photo by Margo Wright)
