Air-to-air refuelling over Iceland

Air-to-air refuelling over Iceland:
A Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker, deployed from RAF Mildenhall refuels a Boeing F-15C Eagle, deployed from RAF Lakenheath, while flying an alert mission exercise with the 493rd Expeditionary Fighter Squadron in Iceland earlier this month. The squadron, made up of both US Air Force and NATO personnel, is fulfilling an air policing mission that assists in assuring Iceland's air sovereignty.
