Ah, yes, good ole SAC: the AF way, and then of course “the SAC way” which was way harder than the other commands...I think that’s where my ulcers began, as a young LT at a SAC base. I went thru my share of NSIs; those inspections are supposed to be tough—dealing with nukes should be serious business, not like running around with candy in your pockets. But my folks always aced’d theirs!!!!
Bet lots of folks are getting booted at these wings; it all rolls down hill ya know.
My father was a Missile Squadron Commander in the 80’s and early 90’s. He was stressed with that job, then he moved to coding and the stress went to a whole new level. Things can get pretty tense when you are locked in a vault with 4 foot thick walls for 8-12 hours a day with whatever part of the warhead they had in there.
