I got replaced as DCC as a senior airman by a staff cross training from the marines. his first engine install was on my... i mean, his acft.. he left the crush seals out of the bleed air ducts. luckily the pilot was a lite colonel and knew the engine had been changed recently and didn't punch the tanks when the fire and over heat light came on.
