Re: B-52 carried nuclear missiles over US by mistake

i think the personal protection from public scrutiny is an important thing, honestly. it avoids the media circus and saves a LOT of man hours and possible op-sec violations from having those involved say too much.

but, i mean, if you lose a screw while working on an airplane, no one is allowed to leave until it's found, and there's plenty of yelling for that too, so i kinda trust the military to punish those in the wrong without much outside involvement.
