Private Tankers? Do they contract for the Military?

Well correct me if I am wrong..... And Maple 1 would probably know for
sure.
Up here in Canada we gave up our air refueling capability because the
aircraft being used (which is the same type of aircraft as this company
is using) became too old to fly. It was outdated.
There's talk about buying a new airbus and converting to tankerage
capabilities but so far no joy.
I don't believe we use anything in house so to speak.
We mooch the services from other governments.
Correct me if I am wrong.

Omega has a B707 tanker on contract to the US Navy for support of NAS
Pautuxent River ops. The DC-10 is in the "marketing" phase, I
believe.
