    Ismael Shaker, owner and founder of Al Harith, a contracting company in Basrah province, Iraq, explains the maintenance schedule for the power station near Living Support Area Viking on Contingency Operatin Base Basra. The manufacturer recommended schedule is every 400 hours, Shaker said, but when the entire base switched to using only JP8 diesel, they went to 250 hours. "It is a dry fuel, this one," he said. "Definitely it will destroy the injection pumps." (Photo by: Sgt. Benjamin R. Kibbey)
