A Pennsylvania Air National Guardsman stands guard as a KC-135 aircraft assigned to the 171st Air Refueling Wing near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is hot pit refueled for the first time at the unit Jan. 5, 2023. Hot-pit refueling is a technique used to eliminate downtime by keeping the engines running while the aircraft is refueled; instead of powering down the engines.
