The US Pararescue Jumpers and the Canadian SAR Techs are reportedly the only search and rescue units to employ para-rescue. Both units are very well respected among their own countrymen/women and internationally. However a major difference between the two units being The Pararescue jumpers combat tasking, which the SAR Techs do not have. Does any know or think that this may change in the future with Canada's recent/current deployments to war zones; especially considering Hillier's desire to 'sharpen the pointy end'. If Canada is going to commit to sending troops into harms way I hope they ensure that we have the means to resue them (downed pilots etc).
