Senior Airman Nicholas Lindner, 307th Aerospace Ground Equipment journeyman, uses slim-line wrenches and crescent wrench to remove unions from a MHU-83 bomb loader on Barksdale Air Force Base, La., Aug. 28, 2013. The unions connect hydraulic lines and have holes down the middle, so hydraulic fluid can flow from one line to the next. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Joseph A. Pagán Jr.)
