Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom, Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa

Staff Sgt. Craig Hadrych, non-destructive inspection craftsman assigned to the 379th Expeditionary Maintenance Squadron, powers up a borescope in a wing carry through area of a B-1B Lancer, Nov. 29, at an undisclosed air base in Southwest Asia. The borescope is used to check the wing carry through lower pivot lug. The B-1 is the backbone of America's long-range bomber force. It can rapidly deliver massive quantities of precision and non-precision weapons against any adversary, anywhere in the Central Command area of responsibility. Sergeant Hadrych hails from Eden, N.Y., and is deployed from Royal Air Force Mildenhall, England, in support of Operations Iraqi and Enduring Freedom and Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa.
