Air Force Senior Airmen Brandon Rains, a 35th Security Forces Squadron base defense operations controller, stands guard during a night shift at Chitose Air Base, Japan, July 23, 2017. Due to being isolated on a foreign runway, personnel must have eyesight on the Pacific Air Forces’ F-16 Demonstration Team F-16 Fight Falcon at all times. If anything were to occur, 35th SFS personnel would work with Japan Air Self-Defense Force base operations and security personnel to ensure proper safety measures were completed.
