Tech. Sgt. Johnathan Kounlavong, 36th Mission Support Group Det. 1 Aerospace Ground Equipment (AGE) Section Chief, secures munitions to a truck at Diego Garcia, British Indian Ocean Territory, May 17, 2025. “It is nice to dispatch the AGE and see it in action,” said Kounlavong. “It’s a bit cliché to say this but there is no air power without ground power.” “It’s close knit here. We have about 30 individuals and on any other base you wouldn’t interact with them the way you do here.”
