"Some people make me laugh!"

Glad you got some enjoyment out of it but given the current events going on in the world, requests for odd info should make one wonder a bit.

A guy walks up to a young airman waiting outside an airport terminal and casually asks if he is going somewhere in the desert. Easy question, how much harm can come from it, right?

Well, I went to the memorial service for one of those airmen and it was pretty
rough to see his buddies all torn up and the empty boots on display with the rifle and helmet and photo.

So yes, maybe it's paranoia on my part but why in the world would somebody need to know how long it takes to upload fuel or load a military cargo plane? It doesn't add up. If someone was doing a legitimate documentary, I'm sure the military would be more than helpful in answering such questions....
