U.S. Airmen assigned to the 27th Special Operations Wing run a hose down a runway to perform a forward
arming and refueling point training (FARP) for ARCTIC EDGE 2025 (AE25) Aug. 18, 2025, at Cold Bay Airfield,
Alaska. AE25 provided Special Operations Command North the opportunity to test a range of capabilities and
response options to deter, disrupt, degrade, and deny competitor activity in the Arctic in support of globally
integrated layered defense of the homeland. AE25 is a NORAD and U.S. Northern Command-led homeland
defense exercise designed to improve readiness, demonstrate capabilities, and enhance Joint and Allied Force
interoperability in the Arctic. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Gracelyn Hess)
