00:00.000 --> 00:03.417
(gentle bluegrass music)

00:03.864 --> 00:07.024
- Vehicle Maintentance, we
take care of the entire fleet

00:07.024 --> 00:09.996
of vehicles here at Luke Air Force Base,

00:09.996 --> 00:14.829
so every vehicle from flight
line support to base support.

00:15.170 --> 00:17.645
For our maintenance personnel here,

00:17.645 --> 00:20.221
they come in early in the
morning, open up the shops,

00:20.221 --> 00:22.842
we've got our main body shop, tire shop.

00:22.842 --> 00:27.002
FMNA personnel, they'll bring
in the next vehicle in line,

00:27.002 --> 00:29.171
they'll do whatever maintenance it needs.

00:29.171 --> 00:31.518
Every vehicle on the base
has preventative maintenance

00:31.518 --> 00:33.217
that needs done, and they're on a schedule

00:33.217 --> 00:35.852
to be brought in for that maintenance.

00:35.852 --> 00:37.075
So they do it as quick as possible,

00:37.075 --> 00:40.645
and it gets rotated around
the different shops.

00:40.645 --> 00:42.315
- The education training that's involved

00:42.315 --> 00:46.488
and the technical expertise
that's garnered over time,

00:46.488 --> 00:50.321
with experience you, you
learn so many things,

00:50.485 --> 00:51.976
whether it's the intricacies

00:51.976 --> 00:55.120
of a particular engine
from one manufacturer,

00:55.120 --> 00:58.536
or whether it's the way
that a certain procedure

00:58.536 --> 01:00.877
is performed correctly so that you're not

01:00.877 --> 01:03.387
breaking apart when you're
trying to replace it.

01:03.387 --> 01:06.617
They spend a lot of time
on the floor with us

01:06.617 --> 01:10.617
learning how to do that
so that when they deploy

01:10.911 --> 01:15.551
and they take part in the
bigger mission of the Air Force,

01:15.551 --> 01:19.238
they're prepared and ready
and able to contribute.
