Stopped at KDZJ for fuel...

and asked how the V22 refueling had gone there recently. Some strong language later, I was told that they'd sold $20,000 worth of fuel on a single stop, but the Marines had done $50,000 worth of damage. At my incredulous response, he pointed to the auto parking lot near the refuel pad. A week or so after the fact, lots of vehicles with plastic tarps taped over tops. The gravel in the margin of the pad and lot, blown by the rotorwash was reported to have done the damage.
