U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Colin Handlen, a crewmaster with Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron (VMGR) 152, connects fuel hoses during set up for an air delivered ground refueling with the U.S. Army 4-160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR) during unit-level training Evergreen in Salem, Oregon, Aug. 17, 2017. Aircrew Marines ran hoses from the squadron’s KC-130J Hercules in a tactical manner, which allowed aircraft to taxi in, receive fuel and continue on their way with no delay. Air delivered ground refueling offers a mobile deployable gas station to austere locations for units who don’t have readily available resources near them. (U.S. Marine Corps illustration by Cpl.
