    U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Hans Van Houten, 379th Expeditionary Maintenance Squadron crew chief, left, and Senior Airman Mitch Gordon, 379th EMXS aero repair journeyman, secure a crane to a KC-135 Stratotanker vertical stabilizer for its removal at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, Sept. 16, 2023. Between the 379th Expeditionary Civil Engineer Squadron, 379th Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, and 379th EMXS, a team of Airmen successfully removed the vertical stabilizer from the aircraft to conduct maintenance on the rudder, which is used to control aircraft yaw, the rotation of the vertical axis of the plane.
