Thermal Fire

During training, a firefighter with the 96th Civil Engineer Squadron fire department uses a thermal imaging camera to see through smoke, enabling him to pinpoint hot spots and keep track of the crew, at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla., June 21, 2007. The camera helps firefighters see where they’re going in zero visibility conditions.
