Staff Sgt. Nathanael Banden, 4th Civil Engineer Squadron Explosive Ordnance Disposal equipment NCO in charge, explains EOD’s innovation proposal Feb. 15, 2019, at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina. The proposal highlights a 3-D nylon material printer to create replicated unexploded ordnances for training purposes, as well as equipment for operational use. The unit currently has a polylactic acid 3-D printer, however, nylon material will create more durable and mechanical replicas for more realistic training and operational equipment.

Maj. Jennifer Simmons, 4th Aerospace Medical Squadron dental flight commander, explains to Tech. Sgt. Carlos Villegas, 4th Fighter Wing Command Chief executive assistant, the 4th AMDS’ innovation proposal during the Innovation Expo Feb. 15, 2019, at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina. The proposal highlights a need for a 3-D dental imaging cone beam tomography machine, allowing for better clinical practice than with a regular X-ray. Having this machine on-site will also reduce the number of off-base referrals given by the dental clinic. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Jacob B. Derry)
