Air refueling missions essential to ground troops
OVER IRAQ -- Airman 1st Class Philip Inmon moves the joystick as a fighter aircraft flies in close for fuel. The boom operator uses the joystick to maneuver a boom that connects his KC-135 Stratotanker with another aircraft, and the transfer of fuel allows the other aircraft to stay airborne longer. Airman Inmon is a KC-135 boom operator and is deployed from McConnell Air Force Base, Kan. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Justin Jacobs)
