U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Chandler Nowell, 18th Logistics Readiness Squadron Forward Area Refueling Point member, assembles a fuel hose during a maintenance day Aug. 16, 2019, at Kadena Air Base, Japan. Chandler and other FARP members maintain their own equipment and must regularly decommission old hoses and build new ones, ensuring a 100 percent compliance to technical specifications developed for use in austere locations anywhere in the world. The FARP mission extends the range and loiter time of aircraft and vehicles enabling special operations teams to have greater tactical effectiveness over a wider geographical area.
