Jacob Ebberts, 52nd Logistics Readiness Squadron petroleum, oils, and lubricants technician hot pit refuel a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft assigned to the 91st Air Refueling Squadron at Victorville Airport in Victorville, California, during Exercise Bamboo Eagle 24-3, Aug. 7, 2024. Hot pit refueling involves quickly supplying aircraft with fuel while engines are running to expedite the turn around time needed to launch the aircraft back out. During BE 24-3, Mobility Air Force 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.
