Marines, Marine Corps Installations Pacific, practice hot pit refueling with help from Airmen, 355th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron and 18th Logistics Readiness Squadron during joint hot pit refueling training at Kadena Air Base, Japan, March 10, 2022. Hot pit refueling uses a single-point refuel pump which allows an aircraft to be rapidly refueled immediately after landing, and while leaving an engine running. This cuts down on response time and ensures the mission can be completed anytime, anywhere.
