I keep one of those nuclear bombs under the seat cushion in my boat... You mean you’re not supposed to do that?

Nuclear surety is an unforgiving mistress. I was in a nuclear-capable artillery unit in the Guard and no mistakes were allowed. None whatsoever!

This squadron commander knew the rules. No sympathy.

I was a Terrier wing-and-fin man. It’s unbelievable someone lost focus to that degree.

Sound like all the ingredients for a good spy thriller. Lessee, we could have one of the bombs rattle loose and bury itself in Death Valley, not far from a prospector's shack. The prospector finds the bomb a few weeks later and thinking it was a dud, covers it with some tailings and forgets about it for a few years. Needing to replace a water trough that fed his sluice, he remembers the dud and decides to dis-assemble the missile and salvage the casing.

Somebody should sell the idea to Tom Clancey. He'd love it.

five nuclear weapons were >>> mistakenly <<< loaded aboard a B-52 and flown cross-country
