Airmen assigned to the 6th Maintenance Group conduct preflight maintenance inspections on a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft in preparation for Operation Centennial Contact, June 27, 2023, at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida. During the operation, more than 150 aircraft flew above communities around the country and across the world to honor 100 years of air refueling excellence. With 100 years of experience, the USAF's air refueling capabilities deliver unrivaled rapid global reach and meaningful maneuver for the Joint Force and our Allies and partners. Aerial refueling serves as a force multiplier, increasing the speed, range, lethality, flexibility and versatility of combat aircraft. Tankers also carry cargo and passengers, perform aeromedical evacuations, and enable strategic deterrence for the United States. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Shannon Bowman)
