The end of an era; the 350th EARS flies last scheduled KC-135 deployment
A boom operator assigned to the 350th Expeditionary Air Refueling Squadron poses for a photo at an undisclosed location within the U.S. Central Command area or responsibility, May 29, 2024. The 350th EARS, more commonly known as the “Red Falcons,” trace their lineage back to the 100th Bombardment Group, or the “Bloody Hundredth,” formed during World War II. The 100th BG and their stories were recently popularized in the television show “Masters of the Air.” (U.S. Air Force photo)
