A1C Hazen Sanders has broken the Air Force record for the most fuel pumped by an individual in a month, reports Charlie Reed of Stars and Stripes. The 20-year-old, a member of the 435th Logistics Readiness Squadron at Ramstein AB, Germany, pumped 3,123,985 gallons of fuel over 29 consecutive days in September, working 12- to 16-hour shifts. On the slowest days, he pumped at least 100,000 gallons. Sanders refueled 187 aircraft.
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
