Eric Molinsky helped report this story. Thanks to Eric Schlosser who was a huge help to us and whose book Command and Control: Nuclear Weapons, the Damascus Accident, and the Illusion of Safety covers this accident and others like it.

Another good post PO1 Nagel. That was an interesting incident. Lots of lessons learned. Of course EOD came in and saved the day, as usual! LMAO Jokes. Just a spoke in the wheel.
