Red Horse Airmen renovate Chilean school's library
Staff Sgt. Lorenzo Lara, one of two Rapid Engineer Deployable Heavy Operational Repair Squadron Engineer, or RED HORSE Airmen cuts wooden slats that were used to complete renovations of a dilapidated library at a Chilean culinary and hotel service high school in Quilpae, Chile Oct. 31 giving 80 students a comfortable and usable library the students and faculty can use for years to come. The renovation, the result of Operation Southern Partner -- a two-week Twelfth Air Force (Air Forces Southern) led event aimed at providing intensive, periodic subject matter exchanges with partner nations in the U.S. Southern Command area of focus -- took the two RED HORSE Airmen, and their Chilean civilian counterparts four days to complete; three days ahead of schedule.
