Pedro XX, the modern "Jolly Green" Combat Rescuemen (4 aircrew and 2 ParaRescue--PJ's) take off from Camp Bastion in Helmand Valley Afghanistan to save an IED victim.

I took this during a rapid changeover as I had just returned from a mission myself and the crew coming on shift threw their gear on the Pave Hawk with the blades still turning and took off.

Articles written on my unit during this time period: [link] and [link]

And some motion footage I shot/edited: [link]
