Senior Airman Jeff Robinson responds to a low fluid warning light on the flight deck, by carefully filling a hydraulic fluid tank in the KC-135R/T to correct the problem. Tech. Sgt. Pearcy Vaughan, assists by opening the cans for him. With only 10 minutes to complete this, engines had to be stopped and system depressurized before opening the cap. Any delay here would have forced two OA/A-10 Thunderbolt II fighter aircraft to land to refuel, leaving ground forces with out close air support from above. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt.
