Carlos Chastang (left) and Percy Jackson, 562nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron team members, show their pride during a special celebration Dec. 1 to mark the 500th C-17 Globemaster III scheduled to depart the base. The Robins workforce celebrated another milestone earlier this year when the C-17 fleet reached 3 million flying hours. Of the several dozen existing partnership workloads at Robins, the C-17 partnership with Boeing is the Air Force’s largest. There are 550 personnel in the 562nd AMXS at Robins, which maintains the C-17. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tommie Horton)
