B-52 Stratofortress pays flying visit to RAF Mildenhall

A B-52 Stratofortress, supporting a strategic bomber deployment in Europe, was diverted to RAF Mildenhall due to inclement weather Jan. 9, 2018, while en route to RAF Fairford, England. The 100th Air Refueling Wing had Airmen standing by and infrastructure available to receive the bomber aircraft until it was able to continue to its final destination. The strategic bomber is one of four B-52s from the 5th Bomb Wing, Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota, conducting theater integration and training in the United Kingdom.
