Kyrgyz Parliament members witness aerial refuel capability

TRANSIT CENTER AT MANAS, Kyrgyzstan - Kyrgyz parliamentarians, Ministry of Defense and U.S. Air Force and Army personnel gather for a group photo after a first-ever flight for members of the Kyrgyz Parliment 16 Feb. After a reception and a briefing which detailed the mission and the significant financial impact of the Transit Center on the Kyrgyz economy, Parliament members were taken on a KC-135 Stratotanker for a demonstration refueling mission with a C-17 Globemaster III over the skies of Kyrgyzstan. This demonstration of air power highlighted to the parliamentarians the role of the Aerial Refuel mission here, one of the Transit Center's four mission pillars. The other three pillars which were highlighted in their pre-flight briefing are Onward Movement, Airlift and Humanitarian Assistance. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Daniel Nathaniel)
