Much older. 

KC-135s had model years 1955 to 1964(?).  My memory is failing me. 

KC-97s predated the -135s.

This photo must be a demonstrator for the flying boom.  Probably late 40's, early 50's.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
