A KC-135R Stratotanker flies in formation with two A-10 Warthog IIs
from the 355th Fighter Squadron May 29 near Eielson Air Force Base,
Alaska. The three aircraft assigned to Eielson AFB flew in formation
for the last time due to the deactivation of the 355th FS and 18th FS.
The tanker is assigned to the Alaska Air National Guard's 168th Air
Refueling Wing. The KC-135R along with tankers from Grand Forks AFB,
N.D., and MacDill AFB, Fla., are providing air refueling support to
aircraft for the joint exercise Red Flag-Alaska, lasting through June
8. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Rob Wieland)
