I gave this video a like for ONE reason. The absolute professionalism of that boom operator. He stayed focused on his job putting fuel into that F-15 despite the camera operator and the narrator.

Worked on these amazing airframes from 1989-1993. Tail number 86-035 out of Seymour Johnson AFB. One of the best jobs I ever had and the great experiences going overseas and all over the world. Puts a big smile on my face seeing all the videos on these work horses.

The boom operator is a highly specialize position and that is his or her single role. If you think about it the boom operator is a linchpin in an entire air forces ability to complete its mission. No fuel, no plane, no mission.... Thanks boom dudes!

It’s still is a crew effort. During JUST CAUSE, an IP and my N helped me put the pole in the hole. I had zero visibility during AAR. My receiver was part of the first wave. I then had to offload another 80K (unscheduled heavy onload) to one of our RT-135R cell mate. We offloaded to our BINGO. I couldn’t not have put the pole in the hole without the aid of everyone. Ironically, we had never flown together before. I salute the airmanship of all five crewmembers.
