U.S. Air Force SrA Ty Willie, a boom operator assigned to the 191st Air Refueling Squadron, prepares to operate the boom on a U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker assigned to the 506th Expeditionary Air Refueling Squadron, during an aerial refueling with six A-10C Thunderbolt II aircraft assigned to the 74th Fighter Squadron above the Pacific Ocean, Nov. 8, 2022. The A-10s transited from Moody Air Force Base, Georgia, to Andersen AFB, Guam, to participate in a Dynamic Force Employment Operation which is designed as a way for Pacific Air Forces to exercise their ability to generate combat air power from dynamic force elements while continuing to move, maneuver, and sustain these elements in geographically-separated and contested environments.
