Valet Parking

Senior Airman William Seaborne, 379th Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, 34th Aircraft Maintenance Unit, ensures everything is clear before waving a tow vehicle towards a B-1B Lancer and connecting the tow bar Sept. 9, 2008. Staff Sgt. Jon Mirro, also from the 34th AMU, awaits signals before moving forward the tow vehicle and connecting. The tow vehicle will be used to back the B-1 into a parking space on the ramp at this undisclosed air base in Southwest Asia. The B-1 is called upon daily to support ground forces engaged in both Operations Iraqi and Enduring Freedom. It carries the largest payload of both guided and unguided weapons in the Air Force inventory and 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 world, at any time. Sergeant Mirro is a native of Ellensburg, Wash., and Airman Seaborne hails from Campbellsville, Ky. Both are deployed from Ellsworth Air Force Base, S.D. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt.
