    U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Marquis Keeles, 6th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron electrical and environmental specialist, pulls a fire bottle across the flight line at McClellan Airport in Sacramento, California, during Exercise Bamboo Eagle 24-3, Aug. 6, 2024. Keeping the KC-135 mission-ready 24 hours a day, 6th AMXS electrical and environmental Airmen are equipped with specialized training in repairing and rewiring the electrical components on a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft. During Bamboo Eagle, Air Mobility Command assets will support warfighters implementing all-domain combat-power generation from disaggregated basing locations throughout the western part of the U.S., along with distributed command and control, agile logistics, and tactical air-to-air refueling. Bamboo Eagle provides participating units opportunities to highlight Air Force efforts and reoptimize for Great Power Competition and to focus on mission readiness by delivering cross-functional and lethal combat capabilities with the speed and agility required to meet pacing challenges.
