Feeding the beast
Tech. Sgt. Jayson Kennedy, a fuels technician for the 917th Wing at Barksdale Air Force Base, La., positions the “moose head” piping valve from his hydrant vehicle onto the main outlet valve which takes fuel from the pit to the vehicle. The R-12 hydrant acts as the final filter in a two-part process. The fuel for the B-52 Stratofortress is initially filtered at a pump house, removing sediments and other foreign particles that may have gotten into it.
