weapons load comp
Senior Airmen Dion Smith, Caleb Laurent and Nathan Durland, 25th Aircraft Maintenance Unit weapons load crew, work together to upload a practice sidewinder air-to-air missile to an A-10 Thunderbolt II during the quarterly weapons loading competition on Osan Air Base, Republic of Korea, Jan. 8, 2016. The event added an element of competition to a qualification test for the technicians; crews completed a written test and a practical demonstration of skill within a fixed amount of time to maintain mission-readiness status.
