87th CES Airmen are ‘jacks of all trades’

Michael Mattay, 87th Civil Engineer Squadron Heavy Equipment Shop operator, uses a pneumatic impact gun to tighten a carriage bolt on the inner plastic panel of a 20-ton snowplow March 12. Senior Airman Phil McCain helps align the bolt from below. On occasion, the plows require a pit stop in order to perform routine maintenance or to change the plow blade to either rubber or steel. During heavy snow removal, steel plow blades can last up to six hours while rubber blades can last 24 hours. (U.S. Air Force photo/Carlos Cintron)
