Wonder if there is a way to document that photo.
Re-reading Chuck Yeager's book, I just got to the page where he said he

Did some checking, the flights were done with the KC-97 and Yeager appears
to have been flying the B-47 during the boom operator refueling training.

Normally they just push them out of the way - it's their nature....
