KC-10 Refueling in 1997
Flashback to 1997 with an F/A-18 Hornet, assigned to VMFA-314, attached to the aircraft carrier USS NIMITZ CVN-68, refueling from a KC-10. Nimitz and her embarked Carrier Air Wing Nine CVW-9 were deployed to the Persian Gulf to enforce UN sanctions against Iraq by patrolling the "no-fly zone" under operation Southern Watch. #kc10 #usaf #aviationsafari #aviationpreservation #boneyardsafari #f18 #f18hornet #USSNimitz #cvn68 #southernwatch #vmfa314
