Airman Zachary McGlone, 361st Training Squadron aerospace propulsion apprentice course student, works on an aircraft engine at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas, Oct. 3, 2018. McGlone said his type of process is slow and steady. A self-proclaimed perfectionist, he makes sure he does not have to do the same thing twice and usually results in him being the last in his class to finish his tasks. This is McGlone's last time working on this training engine as he is set to graduate by the end of this week. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Pedro Tenorio)
