U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Andrew Jeter, 357th Airlift Squadron loadmaster, looks out the window of the C-130 Hercules, March 11, 2020, near Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama. Loadmasters are an essential part of the 908th Airlift Wing’s mission since they perform tasks that range from loading, offloading, rigging and airdropping to aeromedical evacuations and assisting maintainers in evaluating the aircraft’s cargo compartments and engines.
