Default 70 Punished in Accidental B-52 Flight (armed, yet!)

I spent my 11 years in the USAF as a weapons loader and technician.

Well I'm just an armchair pilot like many in this group so what do I know
about nuclear bombs and what they look like.

BUT.... CURIOUS QUESTION.

Wouldn't it be a smart move to paint these little buggers in a special
vibrant day glo colour that someone looking at them from a hundred yards
would be able to recognize them for what they are.

I mean how could so many people handle such a thing and not realize that
they were nukes.

ARN'T THEY LABELED..?????????????

Now if they were day glo yellow with nuclear bomb imprinted down the
length in a font size that could not be missed......

Does that sound too logical.
