On the job with: Metals Technology

Airman 1st Class Jerry Brock, 376th Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron metals technology journeyman, cuts an aluminum block for a diego panel on a KC-135 Stratotanker Feb. 12, 2013, at Transit Center at Manas, Kyrgyzstan. When using metal cutting machinery, Brock uses precise measurements. "We measure by thousandths of an inch; to put it in perspective, if a cut made and measures incorrectly by as much as the thickness of one sheet of paper, the piece could be ruined and unusable," said Brock.
