A U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker pilot, assigned to the 22nd Expeditionary Air Refueling Squadron, flies during a mission supporting Operation Octave Quartz with armed over-watch in Africa, Jan. 1, 2021. The KC-135 delivers a global reach aerial refueling capability to Joint Task Force-Quartz demonstrating the U.S. military’s flexible, precise and lethal force that is capable of rapidly responding anywhere on the globe. The mission of OOQ is to relocate U.S. DoD forces in Somalia to other East Africa operating locations while supporting partner forces and maintaining pressure on violent extremist groups.
