U.S. Rep. William Hurd (R-TX 23), and U.S. Rep. Mac Thornberry (R-TX 13), visited the 433rd Airlift Wing May 3 at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas. The congressmen received a mission brief by Col. Thomas Smith, 433rd Airlift Wing commander, where they had the chance to ask questions about the wing and the C-5M conversion later this year.

After the brief, the congressmen toured a C-5M Super Galaxy. Smith led them through the cargo compartment and flight deck where the congressmen viewed the cockpit and berthing area of the aircraft.
