Subject: [ARC5] OT: B-36 Nuke Article 

OK,  OT,  but I’m pretty sure nobody will object…..
An interesting article came across on of the security newsletters I receive at the office concerning the discovery of a fake nuke from a B-36 crash in 1950.

In case you have trouble with the link in the word “interview” in the paragraph “The co-pilot of the flight explained in a 1998 interview”,  here’s the URL

I just read the indicated page (I’m at work),  but there’s a lot more on the web site.
I’ve always admired the B-36 but have only seen one at the old Greater Southwest Air Museum in Grapevine TX in the very early 1980’s (which I believe is now at a nearby museum).   The events of the article occurred 8 years to the day before I was born!
