Up-armor for troops
BALAD AIR BASE, Iraq (AFPN) - Airman 1st Class Roger Hild and Staff Sgt. Kenneth Pease operate a crane as they lower an add-on-armor cab onto the lower cab section of a truck tractor. The up-armor kit is a permanent modification. This will include new air ride seats and air conditioning. The armor provides the driver and gunner protection against weapons fire and improvised explosive device explosions. Sergeant Pease and Airman Hild are assigned to the 732nd Expeditionary Logistics Squadron and are deployed from Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Lance Cheung)
