Egress technicians keep raptor pilots covered

Senior Airman Ryan Ott looks over an F-22 Raptor canopy before installation Feb. 18 at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam. The Raptors are on a deployment from Elmendorf AFB, Alaska, to Andersen. The base has received 12 of the $140 million dollar aircraft, and more than 250 Airmen as the Pacific's theater security package. As part of the continuing force posture adjustments to address worldwide requirements, the United States continues to deploy additional forces like the F-22 throughout the Western Pacific. This is the latest example of the flexibility U.S. forces have to meet their ongoing commitments and security obligations throughout the Pacific region. Airman Ott is an egress technician deployed from Elmendorf AFB and assigned to 36th Expeditionary Maintenance Squadron. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Kevin J. Gruenwald)
