349th CMS
This is just a test: Technical Sgt. Caesar Deleon (in blue coveralls), Fuel Systems Journeyman for the 349th Component Maintenance Squadron, Travis AFB, watches as a fire department rescue team treats a simulated victim his team pulled from a confined space on a KC-10 tanker aircraft. Sergeant Deleon was the runner and equipment monitor for the 349th CMS Fuel Shop during a confined space extraction exercise held March 6 in hangar P-14 for the 349th AMW’s Unit Compliance Inspection. This exercise simulates the procedure used to rescue someone during in-tank maintenance should they become injured or overcome by fuel fumes. Once out of the confined space, the victim is carried out of the area and given appropriate medical care. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Wendy Weidenhamer)
