Fairchild AFB KC-135 Stratotanker refuels a WC-135 Constant Phoenix

A WC-135 Constant Phoenix aircraft, assigned to the 55th Wing, approaches a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft, assigned to the 92nd Air Refueling Wing, to receive in-flight refueling over Montana, Oct. 17, 2024. The WC-135 samples gaseous debris in the atmosphere to detect radioactivity in support of the Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty of 1963, which prohibits any nation from above ground nuclear weapons testing. The KC-135’s aerial refueling capability enables aircraft like the WC-135 to extend their mission range and duration to maximize efficiency. During this flight, both KC-135 and WC-135 pilots completed training requirements to maintain mission readiness. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Ryan Gomez)

Fairchild AFB demonstrates strategic deterrence during exercise Mobility Response 25

Firefighters assigned to the 92nd Civil Engineer Squadron respond to a simulated injury on the flightline during exercise Mobility Response 25 in support of U.S. Strategic Command exercise Global Thunder 25 at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington, Oct. 21, 2024. Firefighters are often the first responders to an emergency and are trained in first aid and by simulating scenarios like this they can ensure that they stay proficient in life-saving skills. Executing training exercises like MR25 prepares wings to support the warfighter at the furthest node to ensure light, lean, and distributed operations.
