Allen Young, a guardsman from the 144th Fighter Wing, California National Guard, came from Fresno, California, to serve on orders for four months as a tactical aircraft maintenance technician at Robins AFB, Ga. While on orders, he has the opportunity to learn skills and gain experience that would be nigh-impossible to replicate at home station with his National Guard unit.
