The fuel was pumped to distribution points through two separate piping systems, one for 73 octane and one for 100 octane, by two submerged type multiple stage centrifugal, 200&#160;U.S.&#160;gal/min (0.013&#160;m<sup>3</sup>/s), pumps at each tank; each pump powered with a 15&#160;hp (11&#160;kW) electric motor. Distribution points for 73 octane gasoline consisted of a tank truck filling stand, 200 gpm, and 56 gasoline servicing pits for fuelling planes directly, located at the warmup aprons, with capacity to fuel 48 planes simultaneously at the rate of 25&#160;U.S.&#160;gal/min (0.0016&#160;m<sup>3</sup>/s) per plane. The 100 octane gasoline, the tank truck filling stand was capable of 300&#160;U.S.&#160;gal/min (0.019&#160;m<sup>3</sup>/s), and four planes could be fueled at a rate of 100&#160;U.S.&#160;gal/min (0.0063&#160;m<sup>3</sup>/s). The system included 2.7&#160;mi (4.3&#160;km) of 1 to 12&#160;in (25 to 305&#160;mm) diameter welded steel pipe. The 100 octane system was actually used for 87 octane gasoline with 100 octane being provided by a later contract.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEBragg_5-41" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBragg-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>A main railroad spur, 9,928&#160;ft (3,026&#160;m) long, connected the station to the <a href="/wiki/Pennsylvania_Railroad" title="Pennsylvania Railroad">Pennsylvania Railroad</a> under a revocable agreement.

The Air Force activated the 931st Air Refueling Group at the base on 1 July 1978 as the second group of Air Force Reservists. The base also served as the home of one active duty wing and two reserve wings, using 60 <a href="/wiki/KC-135_Stratotanker" class="mw-redirect" title="KC-135 Stratotanker">KC-135 Stratotanker</a> and 18 <a href="/wiki/A-10_Thunderbolt_II" class="mw-redirect" title="A-10 Thunderbolt II">A-10 Thunderbolt II</a> fighter aircraft.

The 931st Air Refueling Group departed Grissom on 1 July 1987. The Air Force Reserve on 1 July 1978 redesignated the 434th Tactical Fighter Wing as the 434th Air Refueling Wing, Heavy, giving it a similar mission to that of the 305th Air Refueling Wing, Heavy. </p><p>The 305th Air Refueling Wing, Heavy, provided tanker support to units involved in the <a href="/wiki/United_States_invasion_of_Panama" title="United States invasion of Panama">United States invasion of Panama</a> in December 1989. From August 1990 to June 1991, deployed 305th Air Refueling Wing, Heavy, personnel and aircraft provided refueling support for air operations in southwest Asia as part of <a href="/wiki/Operation_Desert_Storm" class="mw-redirect" title="Operation Desert Storm">Operation Desert Storm</a>. The 305th Air Refueling Wing, Heavy, also delivered food to the Kurds in Northern Iraq from April to May 1991. The Air Force redesignated the wing as 305th Air Refueling Wing on 1 September 1991. </p><p>The end of the Cold War led to a downsizing of the military. The <a href="/wiki/Base_Realignment_and_Closure_Commission" class="mw-redirect" title="Base Realignment and Closure Commission">Base Realignment and Closure Commission</a> of 1991 recommended closure of Grissom Air Force Base. On 1 February 1992, the Air Force Reserve redesignated the 434th Air Refueling Wing, Heavy, as the 434th Air Refueling Wing and that year activated the <a href="/wiki/74th_Air_Refueling_Squadron" title="74th Air Refueling Squadron">74th Air Refueling Squadron</a> within the 434th Air Refueling Wing to operate the <a href="/wiki/KC-135_Stratotanker" class="mw-redirect" title="KC-135 Stratotanker">KC-135 Stratotanker</a>.

The Air Mobility Command merged air refueling aircraft from Strategic Air Command with strategic airlift aircraft (e.g., <a href="/wiki/Lockheed_C-5_Galaxy" title="Lockheed C-5 Galaxy">C-5</a>, <a href="/wiki/C-141" class="mw-redirect" title="C-141">C-141</a> and tactical theater airlift aircraft (e.g., <a href="/wiki/C-130" class="mw-redirect" title="C-130">C-130</a>) from the concurrently disestablishing <a href="/wiki/Military_Airlift_Command" title="Military Airlift Command">Military Airlift Command</a> (MAC).
