U.S. Army Staff Sgt. George Esquivel, a CH-47 flight engineer with Company B, 1-126th Aviation Regiment, repairs and maintains helicopters during wildland firefighting efforts on Sept. 16, 2024, at Joint Forces Training Base, Los Alamitos, California. His work is crucial to keeping aircraft operational for water drops and troop transport. "We get to work on this versatile machine and assist in every type of mission, from humanitarian needs to working with agencies like CalFire," said Esquivel. He emphasized the teamwork required in wildland firefighting operations and the rewarding feeling of helping ensure community safety. (U.S. Army National Guard photograph by Sgt. Joaquin D.
