All for One and One for All - Joint Base San Antonio Fire and Rescue Immersion
502nd Air Base Wing
Video by Brian G. Rhodes
Nov. 25, 2024 | 5:53
We imbedded with Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA) Fire Emergency Service personnel for 48 hours to capture the overall mission and technical proficiency of the busiest fire and rescue unit in the United States Air Force, at Joint Base San Antonio, Texas, Oct. 9, 2024.

Their story was captured during JBSA Fire Prevention Week. The community outreach program demonstrates the unit’s commitment to promoting fire safety, connecting with local families, JBSA team members, service members, and protecting the base wide community. These initiatives strengthen community resilience by empowering individuals of all ages with the knowledge and tools to prevent and prepare for both fire, operational, and medical emergencies.
