110 Mil. each - wow.

Was reading the MV Times - they never made it as we know.
Copied this from the article - sounds like a BS line to me. Not enough fuel ???? - Barnes to Boston to Nantucket and back ???
Sounds like they had no time as they got off late.

From the MV Times
"Lt. Colonel Sean Halbrook told The Times that the F-15s only flew as far as Cape Cod due to time and fuel constraints. The jets took off late and were unable to rendezvous with a tanker, he said."
