LITTLE ROCK AIR FORCE BASE, Ark. -- Airman 1st Class Justine Apple is a vital team member who monitors and coordinates maintenance actions on 18 C-130H aircraft supporting initial and advanced aircrew training. In doing so, she aids in the supervision of the flying schedules for the 314th Airlift Wing and 189th AW assigned to Air Education and Training Command and the Arkansas Air National Guard. On a daily basis, she verifies the accuracy of aircraft status and enters maintenance information into data collection databases. During her free time, she devotes after hours to the Crossroads Café and activities to foster esprit-de-corps for airmen in the dorms.
