US Air Force,

OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM: They have their hands in virtually every aspect of the KC-135 Stratotanker mission here — they are the flow, the operational heartbeat.

It starts at the top with their commander, runs through the operations officer, to a KC-135 mission planning cell, then to the aircrews.

Then there is a support cast comprising 12 people who work in intelligence, crew communication, flight records, life support and flight medicine specialties. Each one of these sections is key to the team and vital to getting gas safely delivered to our customer on time.
