An Alaska Air National Guard 168th Wing KC-135 Stratotanker featuring the "Minto" tail flash takes off prior to the naming ceremony on July 31, 2025, at Eielson Air Force Base. Representatives from Alaska villages looked on as the aircraft departed, marking the continuation of a celebration honoring the strong bond between the 168th Wing and interior Alaska communities. The aircraft tail flashes were first officially named by the wing in 2020. The first KC-135 revealed in 2020 was named after the village of Minto. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Senior Master Sgt.
