Worked for Northrop engineering some of the information systems on that bird. Tough bastards doing the hard work in theatre. 

Working on one in theatre, got onboard and was greeted by a bunch of guys cuffed to the jumpseats with hoods on. Final destination: GTMO. :rofl:

With that...we build one (the only one) that is specifically fitted to be carried by a C-130 that travels around the globe cleaning up all the rubber mess the USAF big birds leave behind while landing..  Bring them in!

Time for an update,

Well the girl is now a a certified C17 pilot. Wrapped up her training at Altus AFB in Ok to be com certified.
She had to do Sere training (Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape) in Washington. From what she told me it's no joke. She was slapped ,punched and basically put through hell for 10 days. Shes a tough one though and handled it like the beast she is.. Next stop Charleston SC where she will be based out of there for about 4 years. They are building a ground up home that should be ready hopefully by New Years. Heading out the on the 17th to help her pack up the house in Mississippi and get it ready for renters.. Her husband is contacting in Iraq at the embassy living his dream driving the motorcade in a armored suburban. He should be finished with the first part of his contract in Oct.
