Taking on 'The Challenge'
LAS VEGAS -- Senior Airman Megan Melanson, 509th Civil Engineer Squadron firefighter, releases water at the end of the hose-drag to a dummy-drag target during the 2009 Scott Firefighter Combat Challenge in Las Vegas. During the competition, the firefighters will climb a five-story tower, hoist and chop, drag hoses and rescue a life-sized 175-pound "victim," while racing against themselves, their opponents, and the clock.
