"... I like being busy and figuring out how things work..." Published Aug. 22, 2016 9th Reconnaissance Wing Public Affairs BEALE AIR FORCE BASE, California -- “I have always liked getting my hands dirty and fixing things. I used to take electronics apart whenever they were broken, so being a maintainer in the Air Force was right up my alley. I like being busy and figuring out how things work and working on the U-2 allows me to do that. Even though the hours can be long, when you are doing what you enjoy and working with great people it makes for an awesome experience.” Airman 1st Class Aureon Manager, 9th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron electrical and environmental systems specialist Hometown: Atlanta, Georgia Click to see more Faces of Beale.
