 The 4th Civil Engineering Squadron handles anything that requires building, construction, electric, HVAC, power production. As a heavy equipment operator, a.k.a. the dirt boys, we do sidewalks, roads, we do spa repair on the airfield. Most people don't know about my job is that I cut down trees. I know it sounds like you're a dirt boy though. That doesn't involve dirt. Well, it just falls under us. We do it all. We use back hose, excavators, bulldozers, cranes, all types of equipment. My job is important to the Air Force because if the airfield was to ever get attacked, I'd be out there fixing damages. What I like most about being a heavy equipment operator is the camaraderie we all built together and the morale.
