WE WERE ABOUT THREE HOURS into a long refueling mission, ferrying fighter aircraft across the Atlantic, when one of the fighter pilots maneuvered his plane ahead of our tanker’s nose and executed several rolls. “Bet you can’t do that,” the fighter jock taunted over the radio.  “That was pretty impressive,” responded our pilot. “How about showing it to us again when my co-pilot gets back? He’s taking his steak out of the oven.”
