This is a story I don’t expect to find on CNN very often:
Lost nuclear bomb possibly found Device dropped in ocean off Georgia during Cold War Monday, September 13, 2004 Posted: 10:38 PM EDT (0238 GMT)
WASHINGTON (CNN) — Government experts are investigating a claim that an unarmed nuclear bomb, lost off the Georgia coast at the height of the Cold War, might have been found, an Air Force spokesman said Monday. The hydrogen bomb was lost in the Atlantic Ocean in 1958 following a collision of a B-47 bomber and an F-86 fighter.
Nice to know that, while the world continues to wonder whether or not North Korea detonated a nuclear bomb or blew up a mountain, the United States has a cautious, meticulous inventory policy for its aging weaponry!
Speaking of North Korea…WHY aren’t we sure whether the satellite-monitored explosion in their country was a nuclear test or some conventional explosion? Are there not radiation detectors sensitive enough to detect fallout from such a huge explosion?
Or are US intelligence agencies keeping something to themselves?
These are the questions that make you say “Hmmm….”
