Senior Airman Fred Stamatatos, 96th Fuels Management Flight, begins to detach the liquid nitrogen pipes after a transfer at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla., Dec. 7, 2023. The Airmen in charge of Eglin’s cryogenic storage saw a 1,400% increase in their intake and output of liquid nitrogen over a three-month period due to a climatic munitions test. The team issued 19,000 gallons compared to an average of 2,100 cryogenic fuels during that window. (U.S. Air Force photo by Samuel King Jr.)
