Former Air Force pilot turned best-selling author, Dale Brown(1), detailed his service as a navigator-bombardier aboard a B-52 Stratofortress loaded with nuclear weapons, as well as discussed the procedures and psychological stresses of preparing to drop the bomb.
"When the horn went off you never knew if that was the real thing or that was just an exercise," Brown remarked, recalling the time he had to copy a combat message while on alert in the B-52. When the klaxon sounded, Brown explained, your orders were to start the engines, copy the coded message, and prepare for take-off. The first few letters of the coded message would indicate if the mission was an exercise or an order to go to war, he said.
Brown also talked about 'Dreamland' air base, the secret Aurora program, hypothetical nuclear war scenarios, and the dangers posed by radical Islam, China and North Korea. He said North Korea has "an extremely large and very sophisticated military society," but believes their current nuclear capability is too limited to pose a serious threat to the United States.
