What it takes. Everyone plays an import role in supporting the mission and pilots. Without the maintenance team, crew chiefs, and many others, the aircraft simply won't fly. They are the doctors and surgeons that "keep'em flying". Thank you to all!

I was a Eagle Keeper for over 20 years. Maintained A thru E models. Code 1’s were a good day and Code 3’s were a long day. To all my fellow maintainers, heavy or fighters. Well done!!

I was a Crew Chief (USAF 1951-1955) and appreciate the recognition your web page gives us. Often when I mention my USAF service people assume I was a pilot; until I proudly add “No, I kept em’ flying.”

Loved the video! I was a Crew Chief for over 25 years. I loved my job. We were the first in and last out. Definitely the unsung heroes. It’s nice to see a video to put credit where credit is due. Without us the airplane does not leave the chocks. I miss the flight line and the fellow maintenance workers. I Am An American Airman for Life. Keep Aiming High.

My Dad from !937-1960 and my Brother from 1980-2003 were crew chiefs so this means a lot to me! Thanks to all that have severed our great nation!
