U.S. Air Force Airmen from the 351st Air Refueling Squadron gather on the Thorpe Abbotts air traffic control tower after a patching ceremony at the 100th Bomb Group Memorial Museum at Thorpe Abbotts, England, Oct. 14, 2022. The patching ceremony tradition dates back to World War II and the “Buzzard” patch, presented to pilots and boom operators who have completed mission certification training, is the patch of the 351st Bomb Squadron which flew out of Thorpe Abbotts during World War II.
