Yokota Airmen help cool power plant
Airmen from the 374th Maintenance Squadron carry a custom made reduction flange March 26, 2011, at Yokota Air Base, Japan. Two teams of four Airmen on 12-hour shifts designed and created the necessary adapters, pressure valves and other pieces so Japanese crews can use a water pump -- donated by the U.S. government -- to augment the Fukushima nuclear plant's cooling system. The pump will be used to transport fresh water into the plant instead of ocean water, which leaves corroding salt residue when it evaporates. (U.S. Air Force photo/Airman 1st Class Krystal M.
