    Lance Cpl. Ryan A. Golder, Petty Officer 2nd Class Justin M. Mullins, Lance Cpl. Wade E. Skaff, all with Marine Wing Support Squadron 272, are helping to improve a new forward arming refueling point at Combat Outpost Ouellette in Afghanistan's Helmand province, April 17. The forward arming refueling point was recently constructed at the combat outpost to enable 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing (Forward) to better support Marines and other coalition troops operating near Sangin, Afghanistan. Golder is a bulk fuel specialist, Mullins is a corpsman and Skaff is a motor transport specialist. "When we are done building the fuel bladders they will hold 40,000 gallons of fuel," said Golder. "It will help our overall mission out here of supporting the helicopters that fly in to fuel up."
