Vehicle management flight keeps wheels rolling

U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Michael Daniel, the material handling equipment NCO in charge with the 379th Expeditionary Logistics Readiness Squadron Vehicle Management Flight, repairs a hydraulic cylinder on a 25K loader at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, March 13, 2017. Hydraulic equipment uses hydraulic pressure to raise and lower weights that would otherwise be extremely difficult to use. Without the use of the 25K loaders, Airmen at Al Udeid would be unable to load heavy cargo into aircraft such as the C-17 Globemaster III. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Miles Wilson)
