Adjusting straps to secure a drogue to the cargo bay of a KC-135 Stratotanker, Staff Sgt. Randy Miller helps prepare the plane at Moses Lake, Wash., for a historic mission over the Arctic Circle and through Russian airspace from Washington State to the Transit Center at Manas, Kyrgyzstan, June 21, 2011. Sergeant Miller is a boom operator assigned to the 92nd Air Refueling Squadron at Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash. The tanker crew flew over the North Pole for the first time June 21-22, 2011, as part of an “iron swap” mission along a new, more efficient route from Washington State to Kyrgyzstan.
