Crew chiefs with the 126th Air Refueling Wing, Illinois Air National Guard, begin a hot refuel of a KC-135 Stratotanker, at the 33rd Powidz Airlift Base, Republic of Poland, Aug. 11, 2021. The boom operator, far right, is responsible for observing the operation during a hot refuel. This is the first ever hot refuel of a KC-135 in Eastern Europe. A hot refuel provides a faster turnaround so the KC-135 can return to the air to refuel more jets. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Tech. Sgt. Brian Ellison)
