Tech. Sgt. Robert Pinard, 919th Special Operations Wing, replaces the inflight refueling box on top of a MC-130E Aug. 3 at Duke Field. Duke Field, an Eglin Air Force Base Reserve tenant base, is home to the only special operations wing in Air Force Reserve Command. The unit employs nearly 1,200 reservists. The MC-130 provides infiltration, exfiltration and resupply of special operations forces and equipment in hostile or denied territory. Secondary missions include psychological operations and helicopter air refueling. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Samuel King Jr.)
