Tommy Petersson, the deputy commander of the Swedish Air Force, speaks on Sweden joining NATO and Sweden's participation in Exercise Nordic Response 24 at Lulea, Sweden, March 13, 2024. Petersson observed a demonstration of U.S. Marines with Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron (VMGR) 252, 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing (MAW), providing aviation-delivered ground refueling to U.S. F-35B Lightning II jet aircraft with Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 542, 2nd MAW, during a distributed aviation operation, showcasing expeditionary advanced-base operations using host-nation support.
