Each card goes through a two-step quality control check before being stored. After being assessed, the cards are placed into polyfoil pouches with a desiccant, vacuum sealed, and placed into trays for storage. These trays can hold 400 cards each and are organized by collection site and date received. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Noah D. Coger)
