Another lie?

You really have no idea what the PRP programs are about, do you?

I only spent about ten years under HRP for some reason at various
times from 1963 to 1982.

Hint: It goes way beyond "human reliability rules".

Not really. It isn't that complicated. What does seem to be
complicated is for people to realize back in the paranoid days of the
Cold War there were basically two ways of operating - war mode and
training mode. In war mode people might be operating out of their main
job (AFSC in the AF) as an augmentee. Aircraft might even deploy or
recover at other bases. Just because something wasn't done at the
normal everyday base doesn't mean it might not be done at the base
deployed to or recovered at. Actually I am surprised HRP wasn't a
requirement for certain guard personnel before 1972. Or to meet the
requirements at least in case they might deploy to another base where
they might carry a nuclear weapon. Lot of mights and ifs, but...
