Capt. Cassandra Hill directs Afghan travelers to their awaiting aircraft at Ramstein Air Base, Germany. Hill is the Director of Operations for the 724th Air Mobility Squadron at Aviano Air Base, Italy, but was repositioned to Ramstein to assist with the operational surge brought about by the ongoing Afghan evacuations. As a geographically separated wing, the 521 Air Mobility Operations Wing is able to shift assets internally to keep all nodes of the en route ‘theater’ at a capacity commensurate with the operational demand, this is called Agile Combat Employment of Global Air Mobility Support System forces, or Nodal ACE. Within 24 hours of the need being identified, the 521 AMOW shifted 78 Airmen from various AMOW locations to Al Udeid, and later to Ramstein and Sigonella. This ensured the nodes were appropriately postured at the right time. (Courtesy photo by Tech. Sgt. Aaron Luetzen)
