The 349th Maintenance Squadron at Travis AFB, hosted a day- long open house during the June 4th, 2023, unit training assembly to bolster up qualified new recruits interested in aircraft maintenance, welding, and other mechanical career fields. The tour covered many areas of the base, flight line, welding shop areas and a presentation was given to the guests about the Air Force Reserve and what it means to serve.
