Looking for Dedicated Crew Chiefs: Aircraft maintainers at Moody AFB, Ga., plan to get back to the good-old days of the mid-1990s when the base formally taps maintainers who exhibit initiative, leadership, and technical skill in maintaining the base’s HC-130 and HH-60 aircraft as “dedicated crew chiefs,” according to Maj. Don Russell, 347th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron commander. These “best maintainers,” who must be at least staff sergeants and usually would hold a seven-level rating in their job skill, will have their names stenciled on their aircraft.
Space Force leaders are looking at allowing Guardians stay at the same base longer than the standard three-year tour.
