KC 10 refueling

Back in October of 1988, Charlie Ehlert and I went on a refueling mission with 190th Fighter Squadron out of Gowen Field. We boarded a tricked out KC-10 and got to ride in the Boom. While we were in the big plane, fellow reporter Pat Kelly was in the backseat of a F-4 getting vids from the fighter. What a rush.
