SPANGDAHLEM AIR BASE,
Germany –
Airman 1st Class Megan McMillan, 52nd Communications Squadron ground
radar systems technician, verifies the
sensitivity time control readout on an oscilloscope using a reference book at the
ground radar maintenance shop here July 10. The inspection ensures
air traffic controllers have a legible indicator to
monitor air traffic. Ground radar systems provide data used by air traffic controllers to manage Spangdahlem air space for U.S. and NATO aircraft. (
