Maintainers, aircrew test in-ear headset during CBRN exercise

U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Kari Mellott, 100th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft dedicated crew chief, performs a radio check on an in-ear headset to ensure it is working correctly during a chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear Royal Air Force Mildenhall, England, Oct. 28, 2020. Mellott and another crew chief tested the innovative headset, which uses the bones in the user’s ear to transmit sound waves, to test its capabilities while being worn with mission-oriented protective posture gear and ensure they could communicate with aircrew while in the aircraft.
