Winter breaking the ice

Senior Airman Ryan Saunders, KC-135 Aircraft Maintenance Unit, uses the turrets from his perch to spray the snow and ice off of a Fairchild Air Force Base KC-135 Stratotanker prior to the aircraft's launch. This was the first snow this season at Manas Air Base, Kyrgyzstan, home of the 376th Air Expeditionary Wing. The KC-135s deployed here deliver fuel for the aircraft in the skies over Afghanistan. Airman Saunders is deployed from the 92nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, Fairchild AFB, Wash. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Mitch Gettle)
