Matt Michaels, an elite welder in the 545th Propulsion Maintenance Group, is one of two people on base certified to work on the electron beam welder, a machine that fusion welds parts in a vacuum chamber. The machine can weld metals from paper-thin to 1 1/2-foot thick -- mainly stainless steel and titanium, but is capable of welding all alloys. (Air Force photo by Kelly White/Released)
