Hello

00:10.240 --> 00:12.351
and welcome to around the Air Force .

00:12.351 --> 00:14.518
It takes every job in the Air Force to

00:14.518 --> 00:16.629
support the war on terrorism . Senior

00:16.629 --> 00:18.851
man , Jeff paint for introduces us to a

00:18.851 --> 00:20.740
group of airmen who made quite an

00:20.740 --> 00:23.370
impact when it comes to the fight . We

00:23.370 --> 00:25.481
got 25 people deployed from barksdale

00:25.481 --> 00:27.520
Air Force Base uh troops . Men and

00:27.520 --> 00:29.631
women were having a good time here at

00:29.631 --> 00:31.687
Anderson enjoying building bombs and

00:31.687 --> 00:33.353
supporting the B 52 after the

00:33.353 --> 00:35.530
bombshells are lined up , it's time to

00:35.530 --> 00:38.020
put in the rest of the elements . So

00:38.020 --> 00:41.630
let me we got 545,500 and

00:41.630 --> 00:44.150
£50 . Bomb bodies were right here .

00:44.150 --> 00:47.400
They're prepping up some uh you know it

00:47.410 --> 00:50.950
was , it was five fuses and delaying

00:50.950 --> 00:52.783
woman in them and we're gonna be

00:52.783 --> 00:54.950
putting the finns , get them already ,

00:54.950 --> 00:58.290
load them up to build a bomb . It takes

00:58.290 --> 01:00.470
us probably about 10 minutes I'm gonna

01:00.480 --> 01:02.369
flow is going for bomb 10 minutes

01:02.369 --> 01:06.170
performance . But the senior airman

01:06.170 --> 01:08.100
Sosa , it's more than just about

01:08.110 --> 01:10.890
building bombs . What we do here is not

01:10.890 --> 01:13.130
just you know , keep us busy , is to

01:13.130 --> 01:15.840
help help everyone at home . My mom ,

01:15.840 --> 01:18.062
my brother and my sister make them feel

01:18.062 --> 01:20.360
safe and then they know that what I'm

01:20.370 --> 01:23.940
doing and the people I'm working with

01:23.950 --> 01:26.170
everything is going well that we are ,

01:26.180 --> 01:28.124
we have a mission to do and we are

01:28.124 --> 01:31.950
doing it after the finish attached .

01:31.960 --> 01:34.182
The bomb is set and ready to do what it

01:34.182 --> 01:36.500
needs to as these airmen move onto the

01:36.500 --> 01:38.940
next one . Senior man , Jeff Saints

01:38.940 --> 01:41.510
berg Andersen Air Force Base Guam

01:41.520 --> 01:45.110
while some permanent Guam are building

01:45.110 --> 01:47.340
bombs , others are recovering them .

01:47.420 --> 01:49.364
Senior man Jeff thanks for again .

01:49.364 --> 01:51.420
Takes us to a site on Anderson where

01:51.420 --> 01:53.476
workers are cleaning up remains from

01:53.476 --> 01:55.642
World War Two with the location of the

01:55.642 --> 01:57.364
side . The project is not only

01:57.364 --> 01:59.476
important for restoring conditions on

01:59.476 --> 02:01.698
that part of the island , but there's a

02:01.698 --> 02:03.587
certain degree of difficulty when

02:03.587 --> 02:05.698
dealing with the terrain . We're at a

02:05.698 --> 02:08.010
very steep angle here . As you can see

02:08.010 --> 02:11.750
the yarder yarder system is operating

02:12.600 --> 02:15.370
all the way up and down the slope and

02:15.380 --> 02:18.300
it takes a lot of the material up to

02:18.300 --> 02:20.356
the top for sorting and processing .

02:20.356 --> 02:22.578
But in order to get it to the yarder we

02:22.578 --> 02:24.950
need to have heavy equipment to load it

02:24.960 --> 02:27.120
and load the bends to carry it up the

02:27.120 --> 02:29.231
slope with the restoration project of

02:29.231 --> 02:31.560
this size finding anything from the U .

02:31.560 --> 02:35.450
S . So this big this big happens a

02:35.450 --> 02:38.030
lot , that's why safety is top priority .

02:38.070 --> 02:39.848
And since this project has been

02:39.848 --> 02:41.903
underway there's been zero incidents

02:41.903 --> 02:44.310
when disposing of the ordinances . The

02:44.310 --> 02:45.977
workers on the site , get the

02:45.977 --> 02:48.199
opportunity to learn a little something

02:48.199 --> 02:50.032
about the past . This particular

02:50.032 --> 02:52.088
cleanup , we've encountered anything

02:52.088 --> 02:54.310
from tires to aircraft parts , aircraft

02:54.310 --> 02:58.150
tiles , engines , cowlings , rings and

02:58.150 --> 03:00.520
ordinance . That's the big deal with

03:00.520 --> 03:02.798
every dumping scoop of dirt and debris .

03:02.798 --> 03:04.798
Restoration project comes closer to

03:04.798 --> 03:07.060
finishing . Senior Man Jeff Finksburg

03:07.070 --> 03:08.450
Andersen Air Force Base

03:11.340 --> 03:13.396
thousands of U . S . Service members

03:13.396 --> 03:15.618
are returning from Iraq and Afghanistan

03:15.618 --> 03:17.840
with injuries that dramatically changed

03:17.840 --> 03:19.840
their lives . Senior man Robbie art

03:19.840 --> 03:21.784
shows us how they're finding a new

03:21.784 --> 03:24.007
outlook on life . This is the best time

03:24.007 --> 03:26.229
I've had all year . A phrase uttered by

03:26.229 --> 03:28.230
many at the 22nd National disabled

03:28.230 --> 03:30.119
veterans Winter Sports Clinic and

03:30.119 --> 03:32.840
Snowmass Village Colorado . The

03:32.850 --> 03:34.850
national disabled veterans , when a

03:34.850 --> 03:36.461
sports clinic is the largest

03:36.461 --> 03:38.683
rehabilitative clinic in the world , he

03:38.683 --> 03:40.794
gives the opportunity for the men and

03:40.794 --> 03:42.961
women who have worn the uniform and as

03:42.961 --> 03:45.128
a result of that service got wounded ,

03:45.128 --> 03:47.183
ill or injured , the ability to find

03:47.183 --> 03:49.350
that they do have abilities as opposed

03:49.350 --> 03:52.050
to just disabilities out here . This is

03:52.050 --> 03:54.620
awesome , this is so cool and the

03:54.620 --> 03:56.710
abilities come in , droves veterans

03:56.710 --> 03:58.766
push themselves to amazing heights ,

03:58.766 --> 04:00.821
taking on new challenges that forced

04:00.821 --> 04:02.821
them to achieve . And also sued the

04:02.821 --> 04:05.970
spirit life just

04:06.030 --> 04:09.610
got sent that I just really enjoyed it .

04:09.620 --> 04:11.720
Really brought my help . Look out ,

04:11.730 --> 04:14.650
life is really good . Senior Monrovia ,
