18th Wing Multi-Capable Airmen course teaches spall repair
A U.S. Air Force Airman from the 18th Wing uses a trowel for spall repair during a Multi-Capable Airmen course exercise at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Feb. 25, 2021. The third and final step in expedient spall repair is filling the hole with the cement mixture, then using a trowel to ensure the mixture is flush with the pavement around it. While considered a temporary fix, this type of repair can allow an airfield to continue operating during or after an attack. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Anna Nolte)

18th Wing Multi-Capable Airmen course teaches spall repair
U.S. Air Force Airmen from the 18th Wing work together to prepare cement during a Multi-Capable Airmen course, including training on expedient spall repair at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Feb. 25, 2021. Mixing the cement is step two of spall repair and requires quickly blending a combination of water and mortar mix. Speed is essential in this process, as the cement begins to set within fifteen minutes, and is set enough to be fully operational in an hour. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Anna Nolte)

18th Wing Multi-Capable Airmen course teaches spall repair
U.S. Air Force Airmen from the 18th Wing clear chips of cement, called spall, from a hole in an airfield during a Multi-Capable Airmen course exercise at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Feb. 25, 2021. Clearing the hole of debris is step one of expedient spall repair, a multi-staged process that allows use of an airfield to be quickly reestablished in the event of high-impact damage. In terms of scale, a hole five feet wide is considered a spall, anything bigger is considered a crater. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Anna Nolte)

18th Wing Multi-Capable Airmen course teaches spall repair
U.S. Air Force Airmen from the 18th Wing demonstrate their knowledge of expedient spall repair during a Multi-Capable Airmen course exercise at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Feb. 25, 2021. The MCA course provides a combination of classroom education and applied learning, but with a strong focus on hands-on training to teach Airmen abilities outside of their Air Force specialty code. The training is broken down into three tiers, each more in-depth than the last, and provides Airmen context for their role by exposing them to different jobs.

18th Wing Multi-Capable Airmen course teaches spall repair
U.S. Air Force Airmen from the 18th Wing work together to unload buckets of dry mortar mix during a Multi-Capable Airmen course, including training on expedient spall repair at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Feb. 25, 2021. During this exercise, U.S. service members get hands-on training of each step in the process of restoring a damaged airfield. While spall repair may not be a part of everyone’s day-to-day job, the MCA concept enables more Airmen to perform these duties in an emergency situation.

18th Wing Multi-Capable Airmen course teaches spall repair
U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Cody Rhodes, a heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration technician from the 18th Civil Engineer Squadron, teaches about expedient spall repair during a Multi-Capable Airmen course at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Feb. 25, 2021. The MCA course supports the Agile Combat Employment concept and teaches Airmen skills outside of their normal job duties, such as purchasing goods overseas as a paying agent, setting up a communications flyaway kit and repairing spalls. Having a force of Multi-Capable Airmen allows for more efficient teams, with fewer people, potentially changing how the Air Force generates airpower.
