Maintainers with the 305th Air Mobility Wing conduct final preflight checks before the ‘Elephant Walk’ kicks off here, Dec. 20. An ‘Elephant Walk’ is a fundamental training element when preparing for Global Strike Missions. This was the first ‘Elephant Walk’ in nearly five years, with the 305th Air Mobility Wing launching all 12 KC-10 Extenders on the ramp within a 30-minute time period. Members of the 32nd and 2nd Air Refueling Squadrons, as well as members of the 305th and 514th Air Mobility Wings, participated in the Employment Defense and Global Engagement exercise.
