Chief’s day out with Hypoxia

U.S. Air Force Chief Master Sgt. James Laurent, 35th Fighter Wing command chief, right, simulates flying the new hypoxia familiarization trainer while Capt. Joseph Teodoro, 35th Aerospace Medicine Squadron aerospace and operational physiologist, left, keeps watch over the chief’s oxygen levels in the 35th Operations Group building at Misawa Air Base, Japan, March 12, 2013. According to Teodoro, when a pilot is focused on flying, the signs of hypoxia can easily be overlooked. Recognizing the signs of hypoxia and knowing how to recover are a mandatory part of pilot training. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Kenna Jackson)
