The History Guy really makes me miss my dad. A huge history buff who fought in Korea, and also had a brother who flew over 50 missions in the Asian theater of WW2 (Distinguished Flying Cross). Dad lost his vision kind of young, and wasted to much of his latter years getting angry listening to talk radio rhetoric, but i just KNOW how much Pop would have loved listening to you. He didn’t think much of the internet (except for moms genealogy pursuits) but I envision him on his lanai at night listening to your wonderful delivery of history. I guess I share his fondness as I have ingested most of your videos by now, but I would have loved to have witnessed him devouring your videos. This is the highest endorsement I may ever pay someone. Thanks for a wonderful product

Regarding the BOMARK site…I toured the site around 2001 when I was stationed there. We were considering using the area for a training site and I was provided a number of USAF studies that included how contamination had gotten into the water table and lots of Lakehurst was impacted. Mostly underground TCE plumes. I have some great video and all the environmental docs showing the contamination areas as well as the original blue prints and maps of the of the site.

In Okinawa, in 1959 or 1960, a Nike Hercules with a nuclear warhead was accidentally launched horizontally at the Naha waterfront. The warhead ended up in the sea a few hundred yards away. If it had detonated, it would have destroyed much of the city. My father was the battalion commander at the time.

The Bomarc site holds an interesting memory for me. I was stationed at McGuire in the early to mid 1980s as an Air Force cop. Some of our guys used to go to Bomarc to check the gate for signs of illegal entry, but that didn't fall into our job description. A few buddies of mine and I once went there while we were out tooling around after a day at the beach. We rolled up on the gate, found it locked, remembered it was supposed to be radioactive, so we left.

ººThere is no such thing as atomic weapons. They say it radiates the ground for thousands of years and nothing can live there and yet three days after the thousands of tons of dynamite or the so called A bomb was detonated in Japan businesses were reopened (It's all show and tell). Population of Hiroshima in 2019 is over 2,000,000. Population of Nagasaki in 2019 is over 411,000. It's only been 75 years since we dropped "The Bomb." What happened to all that deadly radiation ? Why didn't the Japanese engage the Enola Gay or Bockscar (The B-29s) and how did the US know that they wouldn't ? Of course we've all seen the burn victims but was their hair and fingernails falling off ? Were they throwing up ? No, There were no signs radiation poisoning. They showed us burn victims from the firestorm capital of the world. You can strike a match and get that mushroom affect. Bombs don't control people, fear does specially with imagery. On some of the iconic images you can tell that it's a cut and paste job. Think of how real the explosions looked on the movie "The Day After" but you know that they're not real. All of these insane war whores with nothing but control and power on their minds and after seventy-six years off insanity nobody has pushed the button. Hundreds on unaccounted for bombs and no one is using them ? All those "broken arrows" and nukes that was up for grabs then the Soviet Union dissolved, all those nuclear power plants and unclear submarine misshapes. Everybody's got or can easily get at a price nuclear bombs, missiles and motors. You can put them in a van or even a suitcase and after decades of hatred and not one explosion. Surly you can see the collaboration among so called enemies. They are just using fear tactics to control us. They were so busy over sensationalizing their lies that they overlooked reality. The equivalency of a thousand tons of dynamite is a thousand tons of dynamite. Every war is a civil war, it has always been man against man and not us against them. The only enemy that man has, are those that lead him into war. ºHow can our leaders be so insane that they always have a dozen wars going on at the same time and yet they're sane enough not to use A-Bombs ? It's a collaboration. Who is going to win, what is going to be won, how much it's going to cost and how many will die is all decided by a few truly evil people well in advance. Nuclear plants are nuclear fueled, instead of using wood, oil or coil, but it's good old fashioned steam power.

Thank you, our weather history is often forgotten by all, except the survivors. I well remember headed to Biloxi MS, for hurricane Camille, driving south in a Duce and a half with medical supplies and a portable water tank in tow, we left Meridian MS around 1 AM, we got to Biloxi about daylight, it was surreal nothing was where I remembered it. That started my first responder work. I can still see vacant lots where buildings used to be back in August 1969. The quiet was deafening. People that survived looked like they had been combat. By noon supplies were coming in to Keeseler AFB, after the Core of Engineers and Sea Bees had a runway cleared.field hospitals and morgues were filling up. I still have a piece of ceramic floor tile from the Richleu Hotel.

I was slightly part of Able Archer. I was a soldier assigned to an MI unit in the FRG. A handful of us young enlisted members were assigned to be something like message runners. We dressed in 1980s combat dress, including the steel pot helmet, and we carried our M16s. We were in a large room and the Powers that Be ran a simulated war game of sort. I was assigned to stand up against a wall and wait for someone to hadn me a message to run to some other Powers that Be. I didn't know what it was all about, and mainly I was bored out of my skull, such is army life. Those of us "selected" for the "field problem" all had the TSSC clearances, which in retrospect makes sense, It was decades before I even knew the term Able Archer. I rotated back to the States before Thanksgiving later.

As a cold war kid obsessed with model rocketry I had high flying models of various "winged missiles" including the Martin Matador and the MX-1599 Bomarc. I was upset that my Jr high shop teacher didn't chose my project for the hallway showcase. Found out he had lived in Jackson twp. Well within the radius of emergency alerts from the nearby base. That's ok, because my Nike model was selected for competition that year, as it was 2 stage and a much more challenging build. (Plus there was a Nike launch base within 5 minutes of the school and the community was quite proud of their "secret" weapon.)

I would appreciate any information that anyone can provide about a particular incident. In 1968, USS Long Beach successfully engaged MiGs over North Vietnam with Talos missiles on 2 occasions. In 1972, USS Little Rock also shot down a MiG with a Talos. US cruisers also used a Talos variant in the surface-to-surface role to attack radar sites. These were, of course, armed with conventional HE warheads. Some variants of the Talos had nuclear warheads. A later variant, Talos-E, had interchangeable conventional or nuclear warheads, to save magazine space. In the mid 1980s, I read a publication from SIPRI, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, detailing all known nuclear weapons accidents. It included information about an unverified incident in which a Talos was fired by a US cruiser at a MiG over Hanoi. This was the Talos-E variant, and was supposed to have a conventional warhead, but as the story went it was accidentally launched with a nuclear warhead, a fact realized while the missile was in flight, and it was immediately destructed. Imagine the consequences if we had accidentally detonated a nuke over Hanoi. Unfortunately, I have long ago lost that publication, and cannot find anything at all online about the incident. Having served in a nuclear-capable unit myself, I fail to see how this could possibly happen, but then that could be said about a lot of our "little mishaps". SIPRI is a reputable organization with assets to do significant in-depth research, and I do not believe they would ever publish such a story without looking into it very closely, so unverified or not, there must have been some basis for the origin of this account. Again, if anyone can shed any light on this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Looking at the title, I was expecting to hear about Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, Fukushima or the Fermi 1 accidents. I would suggest adding the word “weapons” to the title. Nuclear is not all bad. I think the History Guy should do another story regarding the history of Nuclear power generation. I’d be happy to provide references. One interesting fact I would include is that nuclear fission happened naturally on earth before man ever built a reactor. Scientists have concluded that a nuclear fission reactions have occurred on earth in numerous places. A Japanese physicist predicted their existence in the 1950’s. Google “Natural Nuclear Reactors”
@WJV9
@WJV9 Год назад
In fact the natural nuclear 'fission' reactions are still happening deep within the earth's core. The heat in the earth's core is too hot to be caused by gravity alone and the fact that the earth has a magnetic field that protects us from solar radiation is due to the hot core that rotates within a ferrous mantle and creates a strong magnetic field that keeps our planet's atmosphere protected and makes life on earth possible. The planet Mars once had an atmosphere and liquid water but it is theorized that Mars lost its magnetic field when its core cooled and the solar radiation stripped away the atmosphere and that caused the temperature to plummet and what water was left was frozen or evaporated and the red planet became a desert with very little atmosphere.

I lived on Kwajalein in the Marshall Islands, and we had Soviet subs spying on us all of the time. Sea Air Rescue would bomb the decks with flour sacks to make their cameras sticky and a mess. Then after a year of that it surfaced in the lagoon looking south. Trying to outsmart us, but so happened the Coast Guard was there to trade out radio men on the Loran station. Trapped the sub in the coral and caused much mashing of the gums. Washington never responded and the sub got testy and shot a torpedo through the sub net used to trap them. The Coast Guard backed off and let them go still light on instructions. But from what we heard the sub seemed to stop coming. So, it worked out after all.

probably to a storage facility where other nuclear waste is also stored. And if they're smart (which they were at the time, not so much now) they'll have used cleanup techniques similar to those employed at major chemical spills to concentrate the contaminants out of the bulk of the soil so as to reduce the volume that needs to be stored securely. Such waste storage sites and procedures are well established, not just for nuclear power stations and things like that but laboratory waste, industrial waste, and yes, cleanup from accidents as well.

The threads of cultural memory are distressingly short. It used to be routine to mention Ralph Lapp, who had departed from the US Govt nuclear weapons technical scene shortly before the Goldsboro N.C. accident. He still had good contacts with those involved, and held a media confab saying that of the 7 safety devices on the bomb that was recovered, 6 had failed. The USAF triumphantly rejoindered that no, only 5 had failed. This was not so reassuring as the USAF heavies had hoped!

There were no fires nor explosions in the most recent, and perhaps more upsetting, "accident" where nuclear weapons were flown aboard a B-52 from Minot down to my neighboring city unbeknownst to anyone until they were discovered on the ramp later. That demonstrates such a gross degradation in adherence to procedures and safeguards by numerous personnel in a row that I wonder what the next incident _with fire and explosions_ would look like.

The biggest shame of the US space program is that Wernher von Braun (and others) never faced the Nuremberg Trials

We can't build perfect machines, but what if a machine thinks it's perfect. Now, the first perfect machine will exterminate me just for this comment.

First, I am a fan of the channel and both enjoy and respect all that you do. Having said that, not meaning to criticize, I just feel the need to note, at 17:09 should be... "The bombers targets would be destroyed" not "The targets bombers would be destroyed." Just sayin' L8R G8R :-)

Good thing the missile was not named Sherman. Atlanta, after all, is a big target.
