Reservists deliver newest C-17 to McChord
Col. Bruce Bowers, 446th Airlift Wing commander (left), talks to Logan Chop, son of Tech Sgt. Michael Chop, 446th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, after delivering P-218, the newest C-17 to McChord Field, Wash. Sergeant Chop served as the flying crew chief on the aircraft's flight Sept. 14 from Long Beach, Calif., to McChord. The 446th AW is an Air Force Reserve wing here, sharing global airlift missions with the 62nd AW, the aircraft-owning unit. With three C-17 flying squadrons, the 2,300-strong wing provides aircrews and support on a daily basis to execute the Air Force's global airlift mission. (U.S. Air Force photo by Sandra Pishner)
