Close-up of the forward fuselage section of a United States Air Forces Europe F-16C while refueling from a USAFE KC-135R Stratotanker during a mission in support of NATO Operation Allied Force.   Note the purple bomb marks under the pilots canopy on the port side of the aircraft.  These signify bombs dropped in the ongoing NATO operation and are purple since the aircraft is assigned to the 510th Fighter Squadron, the "Buzzards" whose colors are purple.  The 510th Fighter Squadron, "Buzzards", are assigned to Aviano Air Base, Italy, and are flying missions in support of NATO Operation Allied Force.  (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Greg L.
