Fuel system mechanics must be unafraid of small spaces. Senior Airman Julia Meyer, 168th Fuel System Maintenance shop fuel system mechanic, enjoys them. “Before I joined the Guard, I was doing a tour of all the shops and when we came in they had an engine open,” Meyer said. “I got to stick my head up there and it just reminded me of a little clubhouse. That was the kid in me. That’s what I like about it.” But the spaces are not comfy. “There’s no getting comfortable. You get past it,” said Tech. Sgt. John Phoenix, 168th Fuel System Maintenance shop fuel system mechanic. Except when you get stuck. “You’re never supposed to freak out,” said Senior Airman Milford Sweat, 168th Fuel System Maintenance shop fuel system mechanic, who once got stuck for a few minutes. “I’ve got wide shoulders. It’s difficult to work around. I have to work and move differently than people like Julia. John basically had to tell me how to get unstuck.”
