Accelerate Change: Empowered Airmen

We live in a world that is driven by rapidly changing technology and an environment that includes aggressive and capable global competitors. Airmen are key to cutting unnecessary bureaucracy, recognizing and understanding our competition, and thinking of creative ways we can reshape the design of our Air Force. The Air Force must accelerate, must change, and must prepare for the future!

This page is dedicated towards highlighting the accomplishments of our talented Airmen at all levels and to show the impact they can make when they are informed and empowered to problem solve and make smart recommendations and decisions.

Title: Airman brings fuel sampling innovation to Eglin Air Force Base
96th Test Wing
Nov. 13, 2024 | 2:12
Location: Eglin Air Force Base, Florida

Date: 13 November 2024

Run Time: 02m:11s;

SB1: Tech Sgt. Collin Stratton 00:38s; SB2: Senior Master Sgt. Thomas Montgomery 01m:33s

Unit: 96th Logistics Readiness Squadron

Description: Tech. Sgt. Collin Stratton, a fuel laboratory specialist, with the 96th Test Wing Logistics
Readiness Squadron, took things to the next level by creating the single point nozzle adapter. This innovative
product removes two-thirds of the time and steps required to take a fuel sample from multiple fuel sources,
such as trucks and mobile fueling stations. It also removes almost any chance of direct exposure, from spillage
or spray of the hazardous chemicals that make up the fuel.
