Whiteman Airmen hit milestone while deployed
MANAS AIR BASE, KRYGYZ REPUBLIC -- Airman 1st Class Gregory Coburn, a fuels distribution operator with the 376th Expeditionary Logistics Readiness Squadron's Petroleum, Oil and Lubricants Flight, explains his job to Col. Christopher Bence, 376th Air Expeditionary Wing commander, as he reaches a unique deployment milestone, Sept. 1; two million gallons of fuel pumped. Airman Coburn, who is deployed from Whiteman Air Force Base, Mo., is one of only four Airmen at the wing to reach the impressive feat during a four month deployment. Colonel Bence was on hand to "coin" Airman Coburn for his hard work and dedication to supporting the wing's air refueling mission. (Air Force photo / Senior Airman Ruth Holcomb)
