About 5 miles out. Come on down to Savannah and have a visit. You’ll enjoy the afterglow!

I believe the one off the SE Georgia Coast was one of the 1+ megaton bombs too. While they say there is no danger of a blast, the bomb did have a plutonium core which would be quite dangerous.

There will also probably be larger fish winning the local fishing tourneys almost forever, eh?

This bomb was lost when its plane was involved in an incident during its airborne SAC alert. We had an airborne fleet of bombers flying race track courses so they would be within reach of targets in the USSR. Curtis Lemay, a true hero, was the general in charge of SAC.
