It's not as if the crews would be
bringing a damaged a/c back to anything, even assuming they weren't already
killed by blast or dying of radiation sickness.

Then I guess you don't subscribe to the apochryphal stories
of massive armadas of empty B-52s and KC-135s winging south
(Brazil? Australia? S. Africa?) afterwards...

Hell - I knew a guy who'd 'swear' that if his F-4 was ever
launched from Victor Alert in Germany, he'd be the 'Emporer
of Pyrenees' within a few hours: Head of State for the newest
nuclear nation, Andorra. (And he wasn't gonna take any lip
from either the President of France OR the Bishop of
Sao de Urguel!!)
