Senior Master Sgt. Jay Latham, loadmaster for the 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss., looks on as Senior Airman Zachary Baugh, of the 403rd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, puts chalks down for a WC-130J Super Hercules aircraft assigned to the 53rd WRS April 5, 2022. The arrival of the aircraft marks the first of the squadron’s 10 aircraft that will undergo a makeover of sorts as they revert to the glossy paint scheme they originally started out with in the late 1990s and early 2000s. This paint scheme will not only set the weather reconnaissance unit apart from tactical units, it will also save money and manpower as the glossy paint tends to need less maintenance during storm season.
