A B-1B Lancer from Ellsworth Air Force Base, S.D., sits on the flightline at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, April 9 during Red Flag-Alaska 07-1. Red Flag-Alaska enables aircrews to sharpen their combat skills by flying simulated combat sorties in a realistic threat environment. Additionally, the training allows them to exchange tactics, techniques, and procedures and improve interoperability. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Joshua Strang)
