Fire truck repair saves wing thousands, ensures readiness

Airman 1st Class Thomas Zak, 96th Logistics Readiness Squadron, uses a floor jack to navigate a 5,000 pound serviceable axle and differential assembly through the fire truck maintenance shop Nov. 10 at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. The part was procured from a Tyndall AFB fire truck slated for the salvage yard and re-installed into Tanker 46, a broken 1989 model 2,000 gallon water tanker fire truck. The repair job saved the Wing $25 thousand and maintained response readiness. (U.S. Air Force photo/Ilka Cole)
