Aircraft structural craftsmen from the Kentucky Air National Guard’s 123rd Maintenance Squadron align tape to the side of a C-130J Super Hercules prior to painting stripes on the aircraft in Louisville, Ky., May 14, 2024. The stripes, to be placed on the belly and wings, represent the livery used by U.S. aircraft during World War II. The Kentucky plane is slated to participate in an exercise in France on June 6 as part of a D-Day observations while displaying the historic markings.
