Southern edge of RAF Mildenhall
A KC135 refuelling tanker (similar to the Boeing 707 airliner) sits amongst the maintenance buildings at the 'back' of the USAF airbase, its engines cocooned for protection. On the original photo the refuelling boom is visible at the rear. Despite appearances there is a serious security fence.
