A DAY IN THE LIFE
By STAFF WRITER
“I was a young kid before I joined the military… You know, I just worked at fast food. And now I have been given an aircraft to take care of that is seen worldwide and says ‘United States of America’ across it. It all started with me just saying, ‘Hey, I need to do something different.’ Now as a dedicated crew chief, I’m responsible for (this aircraft); it’s a huge responsibility and an honor at the same time. By doing this, the unit is saying, ‘We trust your capabilities to take care of the aircraft’ … it’s a massive honor.” MSgt Kenis Wallace, a dedicated crew chief with the 932nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, Scott Air Force Base, IL, Nov 21, 2024.
