No convoy commander...hello Munitions Control...hello Command Post. This is weird. What are they doing at Minot?
what’s the difference??? If nuclear weapons were indeed transported somewhere....makes little difference other than the security breach....you don’t drop a nuke on someone...it will not detonate unless programmed to do so and the proceedure to do so is more than a little bit complicated....it is either our intention to detonate the weapon....or it doesn’t happen!!!
Minot AFB - United States Nuclear Forces
In 1988, the Air Force selected Minot AFB for the Commander-in-Chief's Installation Excellence Award. This presidential award recognizes those military installations that combine mission excellence with the concern for people to produce working and living conditions truly above other installations.
(emphasis added)
Could things have fallen apart so very badly after less than twenty years?
At so very many points in the chain?
This all seems fishy to me.
Agree.....something more was happening here than Uncle Sugar wants to admit.
Too many of us old SAC trained killers around to believe for one damn minute this happened as reported.
