Aim High!

You got that right. I'm down here in a fuel truck!

What I did in the war Cold War.

BAGHDAD, Iraq -- Senior Airman Matthew Spatz pumps fuel to a C-130 Hercules after a tactical airlift mission here. He is a fuels specialist with the 447th Expeditionary Logistics Readiness Squadron here. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Al Gerloff)

Smell the JP4 size

The truck is an R-11 refueler made by Oshkosk (the fire truck folks). It's got a 6 cylinder turbo-diesel engine, is about 440 inches long, and weighs in loaded at about 68,000 pounds.
