My new favorite 'hog pic!!

My Dad served in the Reserves stationed at Grissom AFB. We had a reserve squadron of these there. where we lived, we were in the most common flight path for the base. I loved watching these things fly in formation over the house.

Thanks! I think Grissom has KC-135s now.

Kinda like this pic, too!

Yup. My Dad was the wing historian, pencil pusher/stowaway, as he liked to call himself. He got to go on refueling missions, take pics, document activities, you know really cool stuff for a 10 year old...
