In the old days. A dummy weapon or training shape was to be handled exactly like the real thing.

Yup, my maintenance experience too. To err is human, to forgive is not SAC policy.,

That’s the environment I was raised in, so when I was at the tail end of my career at the Pentagon and I heard about the 2007 United States Air Force nuclear weapons incident , I thought, now way in hell that happened.

Well, SAC died in 1993 and by 2007 something that egregious did happen.

nor is forgiveness the policy of the United States Navy. At least in the 70s.
