This is typical for the Air Force.the majority of the Air force is not what I call Military, most are pussies, except for P-J's their the exception and are real soldiers. My nephew was banned from having bible study during lunch hour but it was ok for the muzzies to throw down their rug and pray, and this was 8 years ago, imagine what it's like now, Geeez.

I used to live in a mobile home park on that base and I had direct line of sight to the hangers the BUFFs were maintained in. Pretty cool to see the tails of the planes as they moved around the flight line. You know I was never ever worried about a nuke going off or an incoming missle while I was living there. Heck, I was only ten years old yet I had more backbone than whiney liberals do today. I loved Minot. It was a great base to live on and when I had to move I hated the next base....Barksdale. Way too hot and humid for a kid who was acclimated to a Northern climate.

Maybe they were just not vaccinated, and as holdouts encouraged the people under them to take the same approach. If this was the case, there would probably would be a lot more shrill and performative media hysterics though, it has to be said.

Also Minot (along with Dyess AFB) has some shadowy past history with mishandling of nukes, I wonder if this is some long-delayed consequence of what happened way back in 2007 under W Bush.

The Air Force’s Friday report on the August 29-30 nuclear weapons incident which saw six armed cruise missiles flown across the continental US in launch position on a B-52H bomber leaves all the big questions unanswered, attempting to shuck the whole thing off as an “unacceptable mistake.”

It's a mystery

Mayer, Welch and four subordinate leaders were relieved of command "due to a loss of confidence in their ability to complete their assigned duties," the Air Force said. The Air Force did not specify why commanders had lost confidence in all six individuals.

Comment section is speculating that it was a refusal to go along with the Woke agenda.
