When a C-17 gives you bees, you make honey

Staff. Sgt. Joshua Carder, a firefighter at the 167th Airlift Wing in Martinsburg, W.Va., collects bees that swarmed a C-17 Globemaster III on the flightline at the 167th, May 3, 2016. Carder estimated that there were about 5,000 to 10,000 bees in the swarm. The bees landed and gathered in two large masses on the fuselage and crew entrance door ladder. Carder volunteered to capture the bees and keep them on his orchard with his other hives. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Tech. Sgt. Matt Riffle/released)
