Expeditionary Airmen accelerate change

Airmen assigned to the 379th Expeditionary Maintenance Group at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, hook a fuel hose to a U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon assigned to the 77th Fighter Squadron from Prince Sultan Air Base, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, on the flight line of AUAB on Nov. 10, 2020. The training qualified AUAB Airmen assigned to the 379th Expeditionary Maintenance Group and the 379th Expeditionary Logistics Readiness Squadron to support 24-hour hot refueling operations on multiple aircraft that rotate through the base. Hot refueling allows aircrew to land and keep their engines running while they refuel, before taking off to continue the next leg of their respective missions. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
