Repair and Reclamation
Airman 1st Class Anthony Soltesz, 28th Maintenance Squadron repair and reclamation journeyman, re-torques a bolt on the aircrew entry ladder of a B-1 bomber on Ellsworth Air Force Base, S.D., Dec. 22, 2011. Throughout the holiday season, the repair and reclamation Airmen, like numerous others around the base, worked 12-hour shifts to ensure the 28th Bomb Wing's fleet of B-1B aircraft are ready for any mission, anywhere in the world.
