Lining up for Fuel
At Last Drill, Echo Company set up a night FARP (Forward Arming and Refueling Point). Lucky for me, they set it up in mid-afternoon so I could shoot pictures. Just before dark, this pair of Apache Longbow helicopters flew in for fuel. They had to wait a few minutes while the fuelers transferred fuel from one tanker truck to another, so I did not get pictures of the fueling operation. I did get Blackhawks and Chinooks getting fuel which I will post tomorrow.
