Mission Highlight: Periodic Maintenance Team
Minot Air Force Base

"SSgt Shane Stilson I'm a PMT team chief. Well as a PMT team chief I basically direct maintenance and workflow on sight with the PMT while they're doing maintenance. When we get to sight we just get to work on all of our tasks which is all 3 year-6 maintenance essentially. So it's all periodic stuff they're doing coolant change and diesel work to make sure life of all the systems keep going. Our general systems are our power generation which is the diesel and any power generated to the sight, as well as the HVAC system that keeps the temperatures regulated. I think my job is important, because it maintains the life of the sight over a long period of time by keeping the systems going." More
