U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. James Guinn (left) and Airman 1st Class Griffin Aldrich (right), 145th Logistics Readiness Squadron (LRS), work together using a banding machine to seal boxes with metal strips before shipment the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office (DRMO) at Fort Bragg, N.C. The Air Force released a new policy mandating the reduction in mobility equipment stored at LRS from 100 to 25 percent, and the process of downsizing is in its final stages at the North Carolina Air National Guard Base, Charlotte Douglas Intl. Airport, Sept. 11, 2014. The equipment includes chemical warfare items, interceptor body armor, helmets, cold weather uniforms, and other miscellaneous gear given to military members prior to deployments. LRS previously maintained enough to outfit every member of the N.C. Air National Guard, but will now keep amounts more in-line with current mission needs. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Staff Sgt.
