168th Wing Refuels the Forces at Red Flag-Alaska 23-3

U.S. Air Force Capt. Steven Billa and 1st Lt. Sam Kendall, pilots assigned to the 168th Wing, Alaska Air National Guard, conduct pre-flight checks prior to an air refueling mission during the Red Flag-Alaska 23-3 exercise, August 15, 2023. Red Flag-Alaska provides realistic warfighting training scenarios and prepares Air Force, Joint, and Coalition aircrews to fight against peer-level adversaries in any combat environment. Global reach is an essential aspect of the U.S. military's warfighting ability, and aerial refueling helps to make global reach a reality. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Senior Master Sgt.
