: [snip] I don't recall anyone facing the assignment to missiles as being particularly grateful nor viewing it as "fine duty." They did get pretty polyester ascots, vinyl caps and a chance to get a Master's degree during their days in the hole. And, other than cholesterol build-up from chow hall food, the hazards during the Vietnam war were minimal in the silo. Casualties were low and few POW's were taken. Missileers were subject to some very rigorous pshychological screening AIUI. I would imagine not wanting that particular assignment would raise some red flags for the screeners as would a surfeit of enthusiasm for the job.
