In this episode of PV Talks, host Steve Bracety sits down with Larry Jacobs, retired Air National Guard veteran, former Phoenix Police Department command officer, and Arizona representative for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR). Steve shares his firsthand experience flying aboard a KC-135 refueling tanker with the 161st Air National Guard, witnessing an in-air refueling of F-35 fighter jets—an unforgettable look behind the scenes of military precision and teamwork.

Larry offers deep insight into the critical role the Guard and Reserve play in national defense, the realities of in-flight refueling operations, and the unique dual-life of citizen airmen who balance civilian careers with military service. The conversation also highlights ESGR’s mission to educate and support employers, protect service members’ employment rights, and strengthen the bridge between military and civilian communities.

This episode is a powerful tribute to service, leadership, and the often unseen people who keep our nation ready—both in the air and at home.
