Republic of Korea Air Force Sgt. Kihyun Shim, communications specialist, observes a Rapid Airfield Damage Repair exercise on the airfield at Gwangju Air Base, , Nov. 6, 2017. Approximately forty Airmen from the 773d Civil Engineer Squadron at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, and 40 Republic of Korea Airmen from Gwangju trained together for a week to learn a new runway repair process for wartime contingencies.
