The 100th Air Refueling Wing’s newest heritage nose art, “Skipper III,” was unveiled during a ceremony at Royal Air Force Mildenhall May 7, 2021. The nose art, designed by Gary Rogers, 100th ARW Public Affairs graphic artist, was dedicated to retired Master Sgt. Dewey Christopher, former 351st Bomb Squadron maintainer and crew chief of the 100th Bombardment Group and World War II. The jet, tail number 59-1470, was also “adopted” by the 100th Mission Support Group as part of RAF Mildenhall’s “Adopt-a-Jet” program. (U.S. Air Force photo by Karen Abeyasekere)
