Into the fog...
GRISSSOM AIR RESERVE BASE, Ind. -- Surrounded by a dense fog, a KC-135R Stratotanker at Grissom sits on the flight line Aug. 7. Sixteen KC-135s are assigned to the 434th Air Refueling Wing at Grissom, making it the largest Stratotanker unit in the Air Force Reserve. Four turbofans, mounted under 35-degree swept wings, power the KC-135 to takeoffs at gross weights up to 322,500 pounds. Nearly all internal fuel can be pumped through the flying boom, the KC-135's primary fuel transfer method. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Mark R. W. Orders-Woempner)
