Staff Sgt. Spencer Balcom, 92nd Air Refueling Squadron boom operator, answers questions from John Francisco, West Plains Chamber of Commerce president, about air refueling operations during an orientation flight May 26, 2015, that took off from Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash. Francisco was one of 21 WPCC members who was afforded the chance to witness air refueling of a C-17 Globemaster III cargo aircraft from Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash., and F-15 Eagles from the 173rd Fighter Wing stationed at Klamath Falls, Ore., while flying over eastern Oregon.
