Tanker Flight

Fueling a B-52 from a KC-135 out of K. I. Sawyer AFB Michigan These photos were taken by a Contac 139 Quarts in 1987. I was a guest of the United States Air Force on this flight. I want to thank the U. S. Air Force for allowing me to witness this, why they even gave us lunch on the flight.
