U.S. Air Force Col. Ryan Garlow, left, 100th Air Refueling Wing commander; Col. Thomas Hutton, second left, 100th Operations Group commander; Chief Master Sgt. Tiffany Griego, second right, 100th ARW command chief, and Chief Master Sgt. Wakisha Humphries, right, 100th Operations Group senior enlisted leader, show off the latest heritage nose art – “Silver Dollar” – on a KC-135 Stratotanker after a dedication ceremony at Royal Air Force Mildenhall, England, Oct. 10, 2023. Each of the 100th ARW’s tankers bears a heritage nose art, based on those painted on the side of B-17 Flying Fortress aircraft at the 100th Bomb Group during World War II, and “Silver Dollar” is the only double-sided design in the fleet.
