Preventative maintenance keep BONES ready to provide combat air support

U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Cody Patterson, 34th Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Unit, hooks up hydraulic mules on a B-1B Lancer, March 1, 2015, at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar. Patterson, a native of Marion, Va., deployed here from Ellsworth Air Force Base, S.D., is a dedicated crew chief of the 34th Expeditionary Bomb Squadron flagship. Anytime the aircraft's hydraulic systems are ground-operated, a hydraulic mule takes the place of the pumps on the engine to work the aircraft's flight controls, weapons and flaps.
