Two high-ranking officials in the United States Air Force will possibly be resigning soon. It has come to the attention of many, that the Air Force has not been handling nuclear weapon parts as carefully as they should be handling such delicate destruction forces. One of the more prominent reasons for the possible resignation has been the discovery of four nosecone fuses for Minuteman nuclear warheads that were sent to Taiwan instead of helicopter batteries. This along with other things such as the discovery of "shoddy conditions at Walter Reed Army Medical Hospital" as caused Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates to review many positions held by high ranking officials in the military.
This article proves to be very interesting because although the content might be discouraging ( the discovery that nuclear weapons are not being handled extremely carefully) it is encouraging to hear that action is being taken against it, and solutions are being found.
