    379th Air Expeditionary Wing

    Airman 1st Class Brian Decker, Airman 1st Class Pablo Fajardo, and Airman 1st Class Jonathan Quintanilla, all crew chiefs with the 379th Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, 34th Aircraft Maintenance Unit, tighten rivets on a gear screw access panel, Aug. 25, 2008, at an undisclosed air base in Southwest Asia. The access panel was removed to allow a check of the gear sweep assembly as part of a home station check. Home station checks are performed every 800 hours of flying time, checking wear and chafing in high stress sections of the B-1 Lancer aircraft. B-1s assigned to the 379th are regularly called upon for precision air strikes in support of Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. Airman Quintanilla is from Agat, Guam, Airman Fajardo is a native of Brooklyn, N.Y., and Airman Decker hails from Murphy, N.C. All are deployed from Ellsworth Air Force Base, S.D.
