    Four military personnel in camouflage uniforms and face masks stand on an airstrip tarmac in front of a large military transport aircraft bearing a U.S. flag on its tail. A fuel hose with a nozzle coupling lies on the ground in the foreground, suggesting a forward area refueling point (FARP) or similar ground refueling operation. The tropical vegetation in the background suggests a Pacific island or similar remote location.

    U.S. Air Force participants of Cope North 21 prepare to conduct a hot refuel of F-16 Fighting Falcons while participating in an agile combat employment scenario at Northwest Field, Guam during exercise Cope North 21 Feb. 15, 2021. Engagements incorporating ACE concepts in “less than optimal environments” improve interoperability among our forces and help allies and partners increase their capabilities, creating the greatest possible opportunity for long-term advancement of our combined interests.

    Three military personnel in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniforms are conducting aircraft or vehicle refueling operations on what appears to be a flight line or tarmac. All individuals are wearing face masks, suggesting this was taken during the COVID-19 pandemic period. A fuel truck bearing hazmat placard number 1863 (jet fuel/aviation fuel) is visible in the background.
    A dimly lit interior of what appears to be a military or large transport vehicle cockpit. In the foreground, a hand is holding a tan/khaki baseball cap, aviation headset, and a light blue surgical face mask together. The background reveals an instrument panel with various gauges, dials, and controls.
    Two U.S. Air Force personnel in multicam uniforms and flight helmets with hearing protection observe from the open rear cargo ramp of a large military transport aircraft. They are watching a fighter jet — likely an F-16 — taking off or flying low over a runway in the background. The setting appears to be a remote or austere airstrip surrounded by low vegetation.
    Military personnel in multicam/OCP uniforms are loading or unloading equipment through the rear cargo ramp of a large military turboprop aircraft, likely a C-130 Hercules. The operation is taking place on a tarmac runway in what appears to be a tropical or subtropical location, evidenced by the lush green vegetation in the background. A large black hose or cable is visible running from the aircraft onto the tarmac.
    Four military personnel in camouflage uniforms and face masks stand on an airstrip tarmac in front of a large military transport aircraft bearing a U.S. flag on its tail. A fuel hose with a nozzle coupling lies on the ground in the foreground, suggesting a forward area refueling point (FARP) or similar ground refueling operation. The tropical vegetation in the background suggests a Pacific island or similar remote location.
    A military service member wearing OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniform and a tactical helmet with a 'POL' (Petroleum, Oils, and Lubricants) patch is observed from behind on an airfield tarmac. In the background, a fighter jet — consistent with an F-16 Fighting Falcon — is being directed by a ground crew member in a red shirt. The scene appears to take place at a forward or expeditionary airfield in a tropical environment.
    A U.S. Air Force airman in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniform is hauling a large fuel hose on a flight line tarmac. In the background, an F-16 Fighting Falcon jet with 'WW' and '5 AF' tail markings is visible, indicating assignment to 5th Air Force at Misawa or Kadena Air Base. Multiple military personnel from different services are observing in the background.
    A person wearing military digital camouflage uniform and a gray face mask is holding a Canon DSLR camera with a professional lens. They appear to be a military photographer on duty, with blue foam earplugs inserted and a Canon camera strap around their neck. A large white structure with partial lettering visible in the background suggests a military or aviation environment.
    Military ground crew personnel are conducting flight line operations around an F-16 Fighting Falcon jet fighter on a tarmac. Two foreground personnel wearing hearing protection are monitoring the aircraft, while additional crew members are visible in the background. The tail markings and aircraft number '411' are visible, along with what appears to be a fuel hose on the ground.
    A military ground crew member in Navy working uniform crouches near the underside of a fighter jet, likely an F-16, on a flight line tarmac. The aircraft is equipped with visible air-to-air missiles on the wingtip and underwing hardpoints, along with an external fuel tank. Additional military personnel and ground support vehicles are visible in the background.
    A military pilot sits in the cockpit of a fighter jet, visible through the canopy, wearing a flight helmet and oxygen mask. The aircraft fuselage bears the name 'LT GEN KEVIN SCHNEIDER' stenciled below the canopy rail. Ground crew members wearing hearing protection headsets are visible in the foreground, observing or communicating with the pilot.
    A U.S. Air Force service member in full OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) gear and tactical equipment is crouched on a runway handling a fuel hose connector, likely conducting a forward area refueling point (FARP) or ACE (Agile Combat Employment) operation. In the background, an F-16 Fighting Falcon with tail code 'HW' is parked on the tarmac with another personnel member in an orange safety vest standing nearby. The setting appears to be a tropical or Pacific region airfield based on the vegetation and cloud cover.
