I was in our pre-departure briefing getting ready to head out to one of the Air Force's Nuclear Launch Control Facilities on the Northern tier. After the attacks, we spent 3 days 100 foot underground at a heightened state of nuclear launch readiness not seen since the Cuban Missile Crises in the early 60's. We had an incredible amount of destructive power at our fingertips. The pucker factor was pretty tense during that time.
