Show 8 HTEME S Oct. 4, 2012 DCC From page 7 and the DCCs alone make the difference between a jet that's ready to go to war and a jet that is not. Because of that we have a lot riding on your shoulders." Gardenhour noted the pride inherent in the responsibility of the position and the teamwork necessary between the DCCs and their assistants to get the jets ready. Lt. Col. Jay Sabia, 4th Fighter Squadron commander, described four pillars as a practical foundation of the relationships set by the dedicated crew chief. He cited professionalism, perseverance, performance and pride, and noted that the relationship between the pilot and the crew chief must be healthy. He also noted an example where when a fighter pilot was shot down by enemy fire and recovered, one of the first to greet the returning pilot on the flightline was his crew chief. Lt. Col. David Shoemaker, 421st Fighter Squadron commander, noted that it takes both the pilot and the crew chief to take the fight to the enemy. "The enemy is not afraid of the pilot. The enemy is not afraid of the plane. The enemy is scared of the teamwork between the pilot and the crew chief. It takes the relationship between them to create the atmosphere to make things happen." The maintainers presented aircraft chocks to their respective pilots and each dedicated crew chief was presented with a certificate.
