"Can you put ‘Jet Fuel’ in that Stryker?" I asked the experienced 92F (Army petroleum supply specialist) while he was working the night shift... As a Company XO during a CTC rotation, one of my many duties was to ensure logistics were properly planned out for my infantrymen to be successful during the collective training exercise. This was my responsibility so they could focus on maneuvering and honing their tactical communications skills in a simulated combat environment. We were heading to a refuel point one evening when I noticed the fuel tanker we pulled up to had the words: “Jet Fuel” in red letters across the tank. I was an inexperienced Army officer, still wearing my 1st Lieutenant rank upside down, and I asked the 92F if it was okay to put ‘jet fuel’ into our Strykers instead of JP-8. He was respectful, but almost didn’t even acknowledge my concerns, just ensured me that it was perfectly fine. I didn’t learn until later on how much emphasis was placed on going to a “one fuel” Army for combat operations. It has been a clear advantage in every modern conflict that the #dod has been involved in. Having seemingly unlimited, high quality fuel is a super power on the battlefield: "Energy is the lifeblood of our warfighting capabilities." - General David H. Petraeus, US Army (Ret.) One of my favorite podcasts, the Hardcore History Podcast (my favorite episode linked below), dives in deep on this and explains how and why the U.S. had such great access to high quality petroleum products for our air, land, and sea based vehicles in World War II. We are so well-versed as a military in getting supplies to our front lines, anywhere in the world (even in land-locked countries), and delivering JP-8 to our warfighters is a critical part of the whole equation that cannot be overlooked.
