Beale trains for two-ship tactical formation flying

A KC-135 Stratotanker takes off from Beale Air Force Base, California during a unit training assembly on Feb. 11, 2017. Another KC-135 took off minutes later as part of a two-ship aircraft formation routine training sortie to refuel eight F-15 Eagles from the 173rd Fighter Wing out of Kingsley Field Air National Guard Base, Oregon. The 173 FW mission is to train the most superior air-to-air combat pilots in the world. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Brenda Davis).
