    A confined space rescue training exercise is underway outdoors, with a person in a white hard hat and high-visibility harness descending into a manhole or confined space entry point. A tripod rescue system with pulleys and red rope is rigged over the opening, while multiple personnel — including firefighters and an instructor in an orange shirt — observe and evaluate the procedure. A person with a clipboard appears to be scoring or documenting the exercise.

    115th Fighter Wing

    A member of the 115th Fighter Wing, Wisconsin Air National Guard, is lowered into a manhole during an annual safety inspection for confined space rescue on July 8, 2026, at Truax Field Air National Guard Base, Madison, Wisconsin. Confined space rescues are high-risk operations due to limited access and potentially hazardous atmospheres that require annual training to ensure responders are prepared to safely perform rescues while testing air quality and gas monitoring equipment to protect both rescuers and those in need.

    Two workers are removing or repositioning a manhole cover on a grassy area near industrial buildings. A confined space entry tripod with rope and pulley rescue system is set up nearby, along with a ventilation duct, indicating a confined space entry operation or training exercise. One worker wears an orange high-visibility shirt with a radio, and the other wears dark fire/rescue department clothing with a patch.
    A group of workers are gathered around an open manhole or confined space entry point outdoors on a grassy area. Three men in the foreground are actively working with a yellow gas detection meter and tubing near the opening, while additional personnel with rope/rescue equipment and a tripod stand in the background. This appears to be a confined space entry training exercise or actual utility/rescue operation.
    Three men are gathered outdoors near a metal frame structure with a red pulley/block-and-tackle rigging system. The man on the left is holding and examining a yellow handheld device, possibly a gas detector or radio, while the man on the right observes. A third man in the background appears to be holding a clipboard.
    A group of personnel are engaged in confined space rescue or fall protection training outdoors. A man wearing a white hard hat, sunglasses, and a neon green Miller safety harness is adjusting his chin strap near a metal tripod rigging system. Several other individuals, including one wearing a firefighter helmet, are present in the background observing or participating.
    Two workers are handling an MSA-branded rescue tripod system, likely during a confined space rescue training exercise. The person on the left wears a firefighter helmet and tactical gloves, while the person on the right wears a white hard hat, safety harness, and carries a gas detection device. The setting appears to be an outdoor training area near an industrial or military facility.
