U.S. Airmen based in the Central Command area of operations conduct pre-flight checks on a KC-135R Stratotanker in support of Operation Octave Quartz, at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, Jan. 12, 2020. The KC-135R support to OOQ demonstrates the U.S. military's reach and power projection across vast distances to hold adversaries such as al-Shabaab at risk with flexible, precise and lethal force that is capable of rapidly responding anywhere on the globe. The mission of OOQ is to reposition U.S. Department of Defense personnel from Somalia to other locations in East Africa. (U.S. Air Force video by Staff Sgt. Sean Carnes)
