Tight quarters
Senior Airman Stephen James, 379th Expeditionary Civil Engineer Squadron, climbs into the fresh air intake of an air handler to clean the bottom baffles at an undisclosed air base in Southwest Asia Sept. 6, 2008. Scrubbing the intake baffles clean in daily temperatures exceeding 110 degrees Fahrenheit is difficult, but much appreciated by building residents. Airman James, a native of Miami, Fla., is deployed from Andrews Air Force Base, Md., supporting Operations Iraqi and Enduring Freedom and Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa.
