A trio of airmen provide the logistics and facilities management at Craig Joint Theater Hospital in Afghanistan, according to an article on the Military.com website.
"We're the backbone to make the hospital go. We're the support side of things; we make sure the clinicians have all the things they need and that the facility is functional and in good condition so the providers can come in and focus on their duty," Maj. Thomas Naughton, hospital administrator, said in the article.
One of the three Airmen keeping the hospital functioning is Tech. Sgt. Scott Hatch, a 455th EMDG biomedical equipment technician and facility manager. He ensures the clinic has the utilities, power, oxygen and supplies to operate.
In a combat zone, the facility manager also helps guarantee the facility is good to go during or after attacks.
