Left to right, U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Scott Engman, 100th Logistics Readiness Squadron commander; Jim Blakely, son of World War II and 100th Bomb Group pilot, then-1st Lt. Everett Blakely; Steve Crosby, son of 100th BG navigator, then-1st Lt Harry Crosby, and Col. Ryan Garlow, 100th Air Refueling Wing commander, pose for a photo with the 100th ARW’s latest legacy nose art, “Just-A-Snappin,” during the nose art ceremony at RAF Mildenhall, England, June 9, 2025. The Just-A-Snappin nose art has now been added to a KC-135 Stratotanker and focuses on the profile of Harry Crosby, also incorporating a background of a navigator’s dead-reckoning computer, and the names of the entire crew who flew the Bremen mission over Germany in October 1943.
