Guadalupe Montana, a 37th Civil Engineer Squadron exterior foreman, stretches from a lift bucket to cut an ice-laden tree limb responsible for a two-hour power outage starting around 10 a.m. Jan. 17 on the southern training side of Lackland Air Force Base,Texas. Mr. Montana said the limb, near Bldg. 5570 on Selfridge Avenue between Hughes and Walker Avenues, pushed a primary power line into another line, causing a "big ball of fire" before the short tripped a circuit breaker. The winter storm resulted in the base being closed for Jan. 16 and 17. (USAF photo by Alan Boedeker)
