Members of the Iowa Air National Guard’s 185th Air Refueling Wing Repair and Reclamation shop work to replace the tail fin of a U.S. Air Force KC-135 at the unit’s main hangar in Sioux City, Iowa on March 22, 2019. Because of structural damage to the Stratotankers rudder the entire 25 foot structure needed to be removed and repaired. This is the first time the 185th maintenance group has removed a tail in Sioux City since becoming a tanker unit in 2003.
