I am just shocked that any FReeper would think this is nothing to worry about.

Add this to all the officers, the recent so-called problem with the Air Force cheating, and I see a set up that is designed to make Americans think it is something that happens all the time, but this is not something that is always done.

If we have this many FReepers thinking it’s nothing to worry about, well then we are truly F^*# as a nation. Forgive my French!

I pinged all you others for some common sense thinking on this. I saw you all commenting on other similar stories, so forgive me if you are irked by my ping.

Not irked at all.

Those that are entrusted with our most powerful weapons and secrets should be beyond reproach.

I wish our CIC was.

I have been terrified since the Minot mishandling, and futher terrified by the Louisiana mishandling.

This is something to worry about.

Most people do not have an understanding of this, and many other topics having to do with our National Security, because for all practical purposes, we haven’t really had any OR foreign policy for many years now. Our ‘leaders’ are below moron iq and the sheer massive stupidity and dishonesty of it has taken all of the oxygen and turned it to methane and sulfur. Welcome to hell. Internal and external chaos. NO ONE in the whole world has a clue what is going on anywhere else in the world ibcluding where they live.

The problem is that 33 or more years ago, The US Military Academy at West Point was rocked by an identical scandal. Back then, I was at the University of Alabama getting ready to graduate and get my own US Army commission. We used to joke that the new mascot at the Point was changing from a Donkey to the Cheetah! There were similar scandals at most of the service academies. There was the sexual assaults at Annapolis and the Air Force Academy.

The ideals that you espouse are nice but they don't keep up with the general degradation of our societal mores or the mental decay in our youth brought on by the moral relativism of the media. All of that PLUS: Man is simply evil and depraved and he is pervasively so. Been that way since Eve bit the apple and Adam shared it.

Thanks very much for the ping.

The very short article states that those in the Navy, who are under investigation have no responsibility for nuclear weapons.

How comforting. /s
