How a B-52 lands (and stops) with crosswinds

If I remember correctly, there is a device next to your left knee that is used to steer the landing gear. The wheels can be aimed on a heading quite different from the nose of the airplane.
I worked with a B-52 pilot, he told me about it one time. It sounds like it was really fun.
