Shaw, Fairchild Airmen fuel the fight

Emily Willhide, Team Shaw spouse, takes in the view from the cockpit of a KC-135 Stratotanker during a collaborative refueling training and spouse flight event at Shaw Air Force Base, S.C., Dec. 21, 2016. Airmen from the 93rd Air Refueling Squadron at Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash., brought the KC-135 to Shaw specifically for this training and utilized the ample space in both the cockpit and main cabin to take multiple Team Shaw spouses on a single spouse flight.
