"Do you remember what you were doing on Sunday afternoon, Sept. 25, of that year? Not likely. But you came within a whisker of dying that day. Amazingly, the news about this didn't come out until 1998. And only since 2004 has the press actually begun to pick up on the story. "

I remember. I was changing shifts at Oscar 1 outside of Rapid City South Dakota.

Actually I do. I was launching five silvery weather ballons filled with hydrogen from a truck in Montana, and exploding them in midair. It was loads of fun. Why do you ask?

I take it "Oscar 1" was a Minuteman LCC.

Anything unusual happen on that watch?
