00:05.742 --> 00:08.705
- [Airman Shappell] Airmen from the 139th Airlift Wing

00:08.705 --> 00:12.258
volunteered their time to clean up Mt. Mora Cemetery

00:12.258 --> 00:13.381
on November 17th.

00:13.381 --> 00:15.973
The wing has a connection to the cemetery

00:15.973 --> 00:18.109
because it is where the founder,

00:18.109 --> 00:20.802
Colonel John B. Logan, is buried.

00:20.802 --> 00:24.703
The airmen regularly come to clean it, to help out,

00:24.703 --> 00:27.211
and to get more involved in the community.

00:27.211 --> 00:31.378
Master Sergeant Erin Pearl says she's proud the airmen

00:31.484 --> 00:34.536
are dedicating their time to a good cause.

00:34.536 --> 00:36.499
- I think it says a lot about the airmen

00:36.499 --> 00:39.080
because they're actually taking their time off

00:39.080 --> 00:41.700
to come do this to support the community and help out.

00:41.700 --> 00:44.673
It just shows that they really appreciate St. Joe,

00:44.673 --> 00:47.267
and they'd like to give back to it.

00:47.267 --> 00:50.142
- The airmen combine team work and a little fun

00:50.142 --> 00:51.639
to get the job done.

00:51.639 --> 00:54.704
Staff Sergeant Keenan Adjuson says it was a good thing

00:54.704 --> 00:57.674
to show the team work between the airmen.

00:57.674 --> 00:59.626
- Obviously, it's a great thing,

00:59.626 --> 01:01.101
we can be out here together

01:01.101 --> 01:02.877
and show our team camaraderie,

01:02.877 --> 01:06.406
and we can show the community and do what we can

01:06.406 --> 01:08.991
respect wise for where we're at.

01:08.991 --> 01:12.258
- Everyone pitched in by mowing, weed eating,

01:12.258 --> 01:13.930
and picking up fallen branches.

01:13.930 --> 01:16.252
Reporting from St. Joseph, Missouri,

01:16.252 --> 01:18.585
I'm Airman Audrey Shappell.
