(Right) Staff Sgt. Titus Kiem, 319th Logistics Readiness Squadron water and fuels expediter, along with Transient Alert Air Craft servicer John Winter and Transient Alert Air Craft project manager Larry Crouch prepare to refuel one of three F-18 Hornets from Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 122 on Sept. 16, 2014, at Grand Forks Air Force Base, N.D. Nearly a dozen of Marine Corps pilots and aircraft made pit stops at Grand Forks AFB in order to rest and refuel while on their way to their home station of Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, S.C. Marine Corps aircraft are a rare site at Grand Forks AFB. The base’s zero manned aircraft operations allows the base to serve as safe haven for aircraft during severe weather in other parts of the country, such as aircraft that were evacuated from the east coast during Super Storm Sandy. This also allows the base to serve as a refueling and resting point for aircraft and crews traveling across the country. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Luis Loza Gutierrez)
