At my mom's now and stepped outside to hear then see one of the F-15s overhead. A contrail made it easy to spot. Oddly the contrail is limited to an area within a mile or two of the Potomac River.
On Tuesday, December 26, the Vice President and Second Gentleman will travel from Washington, DC to Los Angeles, CA.
I want to say things about VP etc but seeing it is Christmas will let it go.. LOL Wish them well..

Guard audio
They ought to get their locations correct so the pilot has a clue who they're talking to. Quite a difference between Frederick and Fredericksburg. They should also be identifying as USAF like CAP regulars do.
Carroll Co CTAF The pilot has a French-sounding accent.
At the same time this guy in white/red single-engine heading southbound ~25mi NE of Fredericksburg is possibly hearing this and turns east. ?? Maybe just a coincidence.
ADS-B Exchange - track aircraft live

U.S. military forces conducted strikes on three facilities used by Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups in Iraq. These precision strikes are a response to a series of attacks against U.S. personnel in Iraq and Syria by Iranian-sponsored militias, including an attack by Iran-affiliated Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups on Erbil Air Base earlier today

Its been a number of years, but the Utility system has an A & B side. I do know in almost every instance of a Utility system, Circuit A or Circuit B light inflight that I've seen or known about, they almost always take the barrier, IE, use the tail hook to catch the arresting cable for landing attempts with those conditions.

Thanks Terry, that was helpfull as I was able to find their tanker now !
Found in the LiveATC archives, KC-135R BOLT 53 (58-0023) was scheduled to refuel the 55FS F-16s in AR-638.
However they couldn't A/R, as SHOOTER 11, SHOOTER 13, DICE 21 and PISTOL 31 flight all diverted to Homestead.
Finding the outbound flights to San Juan is a bit more difficult, but working on it .......

I am sure you have but they do need to contact San Juan Center at some point for passage through.....there are a few "online" feeds.
WIDE51 doing race track pattern for morning CAP, weather looking rough around Camp David would not be surprised if there was a Bad Weather call and M1 changes to AF1 out of HGR, but we will see.
