A1C Nicole Hix joined to North Dakota Air National Guard to build her future and become a U.S. citizen. Her journey from Ecuador to California and eventually to the 119th Wing and citizenship, shows how the Air National Guard is helping people reach their goals.
Civil Engineer (CE) airmen learn Rapid Airfield Damage and Recovery at the 119th Wing Regional Training Site. RADR training teaches CE members how to recover a damage airfield at a deployed location. The training provides hands on learning, working with equipment and other airmen to become familiar with each members specific tasks. RADR also gives members a chance to observe other members roles to further the multi-purpose airmen concept.
