Bomb building

Staff Sgt. Joey Hanson, conventional maintenance crewchief, works on an initiator, while Airman 1st Class Amber Stepan, conventional maintenance crewmember, tightens a strake on a Joint Direct Attack Munition GBU-38 during Red Flag-Alaska at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, April 16. The initiator helps the bomb explode upon impact, and the strake gives stabilization and lift to the bomb in flight. Both Airmen are deployed from the 8th Maintenance Squadron, Kunsan Air Base, Republic of Korea. (U.S. Air Force photo/Capt. Shannon Collins)
