Caption:

Lt. Col. James Horton, 79th Fighter Squadron commander, refuels from a KC-135 of the Nebraska ANG in an F-16CJ over western Colorado during a large force employment exercise in conjunction with the inaugural Tiger Meet of the Americas held in Colorado. The "Tigers" of the 79th FS are assigned to Shaw AFB, S.C., and Colonel Horton's jet wears colorful "Tiger" markings on the tail. The Tiger Meet mirrors the NATO Tiger Meet by bringing together units that have large cats as their mascot or symbol to discuss tactics, fly against and with each other, and move toward the common goal of seamless combat employment.
