DescriptionPeople walk around a runway arresting system at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The runway is paved, and a cable is lying across the pavement. There are yellow ovals painted on the tarmac where the cable is strung. In the foreground is a bunker that includes a light and a small circular window. The bunker has a wooden barrier around it.
