    Three military personnel in camouflage uniforms and hard hats are conducting what appears to be a field engineering or utility installation exercise outdoors. One soldier wearing a white hard hat is kneeling and operating a blue hydraulic pump unit with red hoses, while two others in yellow hard hats handle cables or wiring nearby. The work area is cordoned off with yellow safety chains and orange traffic cones.

    Cable and antenna systems specialists of the 212th Engineering Installation Squadron run fiber optic cable on July 29, 2021. The fiber is run through underground conduit with the aid of a technology fairly new to the Air Force. The commercially available equipment uses pressurized air to feed communications cable hundreds and thousands of feet, increasing the efficiency and productivity of these Airmen, while simutaneously improving communications capabilities on the installation.
