From boilers to backhoes: how 5CES keeps Minot AFB’s heart beating

U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Cody Hill, a 5th Civil Engineer Squadron pavements and construction equipment specialist, and U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Sebastian Pulgarin, a 5CES structural specialist, cut branches off a tree on Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota, April 10, 2025. The 5CES comprises 13 different AFSCs, and in the case of cutting down a tree, requires different specialists and skillsets working together to accomplish the same task.
