Combat Metals: 'The Modern Day Blacksmiths'

The 386th Expeditionary Maintenance Squadron combat metals flight took photos of the initial patchwork on a C-130 that was involved in a bird strike at an undisclosed location in Southwest Asia, early Feb. 2019. The combat metals flight worked a total of 144 hours on this project, and cut the ground time of the aircraft by roughly three weeks. (Coutesy Photo)
