Leilani Strickland, 378th Expeditionary Maintenance Squadron non-destructive inspection section lead, rinses a magnetic chip detector in isopropyl alcohol within the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility, May 12, 2025. NDI technicians perform multiple rinses on MCDs to remove any excess oil or debris before conducting the inspection.
