Major T. J. “King” Kong said about the B-52 in the movie “Well, boys, we got three engines out, we got more holes in us than a horse trader’s mule, the radio is gone and we’re leaking fuel and if we was flying any lower why we’d need sleigh bells on this thing... but we got one little budge on them Rooskies. At this height why they might harpoon us but they dang sure ain’t gonna spot us on no radar screen!”
With the kind of wars we will fight—we could use B-29s to blow up mud huts and aspirin factories. No world wars—all big wars fought with germs and bribes. We are now Mercenaries for Chinese Masters.
