Subject: Mommy, What's That Whistling Sound? Part 2...Idiot Pilots In The Military

Written By: malibumike65 on 03/15/08 at 12:05 am

Alright, Who Gave This Dingledorf A Pilots License? The military really needs to stop recruiting Jethro Bodine wannabes. One in the White House is enough.  ::)

He didn't know the bomb was gone until he got back to the base.  I thought the military set up precautions against stupid people and accidental bombings of suburbs.  Those military exercises are becoming a bit of a hazard to civilians aren't they?

  I worked with these...a little...

  It's a BDU-33 (I think), a practice bomb, the blue color meaning that it's inert.  It can  have a small signal charge in it, though.  Not enough to take out a neighborhood block, but enough to ruin a person's golf...

There was a hydrogen bomb dropped once by a B52....
It went through some guys greenhouse!
The USAF was quick to point out the bomb wouldn't go off unless armed!

Sure they got smart bombs , but what about the pilots?

I don't know what kind of meds the military gives its pilots, but they either need to up the dose or cut it because something just ain't right!!!
How does this happen repeatedly?  :-\\
