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.

Fit Test

Alok Kumar, a contracted engineer, takes measurements of a C-17, which was towed into Hangar 945 at Dover Air Force Base, Del. Measurements were taken of the aperture of the tail of the C-17 in order for engineers to construct a set of doors for Hangar 945 that will accommodate both the C-17 and C-5. The 512th Airlift Wing's 326th Airlift Squadron and the 436th AW's 9th AS will fly the C-17s. The first of 13 C-17s is slated for arrival at Dover late next year. (U.S. Air Force photo by 1st Lt.
