So who knows the Nixon paraphrasing?
Operation Nickel Grass
“None of these were willing to accept the job for fear of being refused entry to Arab nations after the war. On 12 October, Nixon decided that no more delays could be allowed, and ordered the USAF to “send everything that can fly.” Within nine hours, C-141s and C-5s were en route to Israel.”

The Linebacker operations in 1972. April and the big one in December. We identified some of the targets as part of our mission.
It got the Norks back to the table.
