    Lt. Col. Kelly Church, 203rd Air Refueling Squadron commander, and Retired Lt. Col. Richard Trail, speak in front of a historic aircraft April 30, 2022, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. Trail was part of an award-winning aircrew that administered the world's first tri-level air refueling procedure in response to an emergency refueling request by U.S. Navy pilots in 1967. Church flew the same aircraft, number 69-0329, from his unit in Hawaii to Ohio for an induction ceremony. The plane became the first Stratotanker to be a part of the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Staff Sgt. John Linzmeier)
