The “Bones” were part of the strike package that hit Tripoli and Misrata on 16APR86 along with our three aircraft carriers and their airwings.

A certain very close relative who worked very long on the B1 is always very irritated they do not get publicity or accolades. In fact, they are the workhorse of the bombers, doing most of the work. Just like the good ol’ F16 is really the workhorse of the fighters but gets not too much attention.

And I personally can also vouch for the effectiveness of the submarines. But each in its turn.
