Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Lance Cpl. Richard Carr, a Marine Attack Squadron 513 airframe mechanic and Durham, N.C., native, sprays the underside of one of the squadron's AV-8B Harriers at Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, June 3. Keeping Harriers free of Afghanistan's fine sand, often called "moon dust" by Marines, helps ensure the multimillion dollar jets are ready on a moment's notice. "We haven't been seeing anything yet," said Staff Sgt. Aaron Palacios, the VMA-513 airframe division chief and San Bernadino, Calif., native. "Being this weather is similar to Yuma, I don't think things will get too crazy."
