 Being a Blackhawk crew chief, it's about can you do the job and can you continue to do the job? I think the biggest thing the 82nd Airborne Division cultivates in its soldiers is professionalism. Being a hard worker and working at a high tempo pace, we repair the helicopter. It's a very humbling job. You're never going to know everything and you have to be tenacious and you have to go above your duty because when you're in the air, it's not about you anymore. It's about the rest of the crew. It's about the pilots and it's about all the passengers that you have on the aircraft with you. We man the 240 hotel and we have one on each side. You might be the only crew chief that morning that has to get the aircraft ready. It's not only you're taking all that gear out there, but you're also taking two 240s. If something happens and we have to put the aircraft down and we have to evade, we train for that. When we're doing air salt and we're doing sling loads, you'll see the ground personnel marshaling and waving in the aircraft. What you don't see is the crew chief. We're sitting in the back above the cargo hole and we're telling them come left, come right, come up. And there's that trust, there's that relationship. The 82nd Airborne Division is very serious, but I like that because I want to be with a unit that takes things seriously. We have fun, but we work hard. We constantly make sure that our aircraft are ready to go and are ready to be there for whatever the need or the duty calls.
