Dirty bird gets a bath Published Nov. 18, 2002 OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM (AFPN) -- Staff Sgt. Rick Casto guides a B-52 Stratofortress from Minot Air Force Base, N.D., into the wash rack at a forward-deployed location supporting Operation Enduring Freedom. The wash racks here recently received new foam sprayers that cut the washing time of a B-52 in half. Casto is a crew chief assigned to the 40th Expeditionary Aerospace Maintenance Squadron.
