Watched “Count Down To D-Day” with Tom Selleck the other day. The young meteorologist officer caught hell from everyone, like it was all his fault the weather wouldn’t cooperate and he couldn’t give a better forecast.
Know it was only a movie, but thought it likely true that the high and mighty, even Ike, could be like that in times of stress.
There was only one meterologist who predicted the sandstoorm
the rest had to do with the failure to keep the aircraft sericeable
the Pilots had zero to do with the failure of the mission
