U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Chandler Nowell, 18th Logistics Readiness Squadron Forward Area Refueling Point member, rolls a 100-ft fuel hose during a maintenance day Aug. 16, 2019, at Kadena Air Base, Japan. Each fuel hose must be properly assembled to specifications in order to survive the rigors of special operations missions. The FARP teams support contingency and exercise operations to refuel aircraft and equipment in austere locations where typical air-to-air refueling or established refueling stations are not available.
