Colin McCready, 712th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron maintainer, inspects the wing of a C-17 Globemaster III during the Liberty Eagle Readiness Exercise at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, July 15, 2022. McCready is one of many maintainers from the 512th and 436th airlift wings who worked together during a simulated deployment to a forward operating base, located on Dover AFB, July 11-15, 2022. The purpose of this exercise was to validate both wings' ability to generate, employ and sustain airpower across the world in a contested and degraded operational environment.

Reorganizing for future

Lt. Col. Kenneth Bunting, commander of the 512th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, which repairs and maintains the C-5, participates in the 512th Maintenance Group reorganization ceremony Feb. 4 at Dover Air Force Base, Del. The 512th MXG is a subordinate unit of the Air Force Reserve's 512th Airlift Wing. The reorganization accommodates the upcoming C-17 Globemaster III mission and aligns the group with a structure similar to the rest of the Air Force. The reorganization inactivated the 512th Component Maintenance Squadron, redesignated the 512th Equipment Maintenance Squadron as the 512th Maintenance Squadron and activated the 712th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, which will assume the C-17 maintenance mission.
