From idea to innovation: encompassing a mindset

Master Sgt. Bartek Bachleda, 22nd Air Refueling Wing Plans and Programs superintendent, refuels an F-18 Hornet in the air over Missouri, Feb. 10, 2017. Bachleda developed an ergonomically correct support cushion and floor panel for KC-135 Stratotanker boom operators, which potentially saves Airmen from future medical problems.
