    The new nose art of “High Life” is unveiled on a KC-135 Stratotanker assigned to the 100th Air Refueling Wing during a nose art dedication ceremony at Royal Air Force Mildenhall, England, Aug. 17, 2024. The B-17 Flying Fortress “High Life,” from which the KC-135 got its name, completed 12 successful missions before it crash-landed in Dübendorf, Switzerland, where the aircrew remained until the end of World War II.
