Christopher Grooves, left, an instructor with the 505th Training Squadron, requests clearance from Air Combat Command Commander’s Group members to launch a rescue mission for a downed pilot during a high-stakes personnel recovery mock scenario at Hurlburt Field, Florida, April 14, 2026. As part of the ACC CG Spring Conference, the hands-on demonstration placed the civic leaders in the role of senior decision-makers inside a simulated Combat Operations Division, forcing them to weigh the risks of an operation while navigating the threat of simulated missile strikes.
