PATRICK AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. --  The 920th Rescue Wing, Patrick AFB, Fla., hosted local Cub Scout Pack 330 for an evening full of high tech gadgets.

During the two-hour long tour the Scouts were on the sideline for the take-off of both a C-130P/N King and a HH-60G Pave Hawk. After watching the aircraft take to flight, the Scouts had a firsthand opportunity to explored statics of both. Words of "I want to be a pilot" echoed as the Scouts sat in the pilot seats.

The tour would not be complete without a visit to the 920th Aircrew Flight Equipment shop. AFE technicians, Staff Sgts. Sara Bolin and Kristen Daniel lead a show and tell of the equipment and gadgets designed to ensure the aircrew are properly equipped to complete their mission and survive if the mission goes south.
