U.S. Air Force Capt. Patrick Gilbert, 351st Air Refueling Squadron pilot, speaks over a headset before a refueling mission at Prestwick, Scotland, May 9, 2025. Gilbert conducted an aerial refueling mission, providing fuel to 48th Fighter Wing F-15 Eagles, as part of the 100th Air Refueling Wing’s combat readiness inspection Skyway Chariot. By operating out Prestwick, Scotland, Airmen practiced Agile Combat Employment concepts, decentralizing our forces to increase survivability, generate more military options for combined/joint force commanders, and create unpredictability to an adversary’s strategic decision making.
