The Airmen are with the 727th Air Mobility Squadron. The squadron keeps and maintains spare C-5 Galaxy engines in case a visiting transport needs an engine swap. Each engine produces 43,000 pounds thrust, weighs 7,900 pounds and is nearly 27 feet long. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Lance Cheung)
