Pararescue specialists—known as PJ’s in the military—are the most elite unit in the Air Force.

He knew that only a small percentage of candidates made it through the program, and that most people quit during pool training. What he wasn’t expecting was to find himself facing elimination because he could hold his breath way too long.
