Introduction to SAC
Background
     World War II left in its wake a conflict in ideology between the United States and the Soviet Union that quickly escalated into what became known as the “Cold War.”  Toward deterring aggression, the U. S. built a vast nuclear arsenal, most of it under the control of the Strategic Air Command.  The Soviet premier banged his shoe on the United Nation’s podium and screamed wildly at the American ambassador, “We will bury you.”  SAC had over a thousand jet bombers that dared them to try.  Tensions peaked in October, 1963 when the Soviets placed nuclear tipped missiles in Cuba and aimed them at the United States.  Leaders of the two nations pushed “brinkmanship” to the limit and brought the world perilously close to nuclear holocaust. Years later, scientists discovered that a greenhouse effect would have resulted from such a confrontation.  A carpet of ash and debris would have orbited the globe and blocked out sunlight.  All plants would have died and this cataclysmic disruption of the food chain would have eventually destroyed all life on earth.
     Throughout this chaos, America’s nuclear armada was on a hair trigger.  SAC represented that its complex command and control technology precluded the possibility of an accidental nuclear war.  SAC said it was Fail Safe.  That just wasn’t true.  There was always the threat of an electronic or mechanical malfunction and the ever-present risk that the unrelenting pressure would cause someone to panic and “push the button.”
     During the 1970’s, tensions eased and both sides began a process of gradual disarmament. The next decade saw the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War.  SAC dismantled many of it’s missiles.  Almost all of it’s bombers were placed in storage or scrapped for their metal.  One-by-one, it’s bases were closed.  In 1992, the Strategic Air Command was officially disbanded.  It was the end of an era.  Today the SAC museum maintains, “The Cold War didn’t just end … it was won.”  For forty years SAC’s motto proclaimed, “Peace is Our Profession.”  It had fulfilled that mission   Our planet survived the most trying moments of it’s nuclear age and without question it was the single greatest threat that mankind has ever experienced.

 Flying with the A-Bomb on Board:
"Looking Glass"

During the Cold War, military planners assumed that the Soviet Union might start a nuclear war at any time. Initially, the attack would have come from bombers flying over the North Pole, which is the shortest route between Russia and the U.S. SAC built a string of radar stations across Alaska, Canada and Scotland to provide about one hour of warning. Then ICBMs — Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles that could fly from continent to continent in minutes — were developed, and they dropped the warning time to 15 minutes.

to end 24-hour-a-day flights for Looking Glass aircraft.
NET went along on one of their last missions.
See that video segment here
Planners had to prepare for the possibility that a nuclear bomb could destroy the underground SAC command center at Offutt with a direct hit. If that happened, the President could not command the thousands of bombers and missiles in SAC's arsenal. So, SAC developed a way to mirror all of the command and communication functions of the underground center in an airplane. Throughout the Cold War, one of the command planes was in the air at all times, 24 hours a day, 365 days out of the year.
SAC began this mission in 1961, and it was nicknamed "Looking Glass" because the plane mirrored ground-based command, control, and communications systems. From 1961 through 1990, a Looking Glass aircraft, with a full crew of 24, was in the air at all times. Then, with the breakup of the Soviet Union and tough economic times in the U.S., the Looking Glass system was changed.
Instead of having several planes fully manned and one plane in the air at all times, now there are fewer planes and the planes are on alert, ready to fly but not necessarily in the air all the time. The actual plane itself and its equipment has been updated. The old plane was a EC-135 and models served for over 29 years. The new plane is a Navy E-6B. Based on the Boeing 707, the new plane can communicate with the President, underground missile silos, bomber crews, landing fields and even submarines under water. It has a crew of at least 15 and is ready to fly at a moment's notice.
GENERAL CURTIS LEMAY USAF FATHER OF THE JET AGE AND NUCLEAR AIR FORCE  AND A WORLD WAR 2 BOMBER PILOT FAMOUS FOR HIS  FIRESTORM TACTIC USED ON TOKYO



General LeMay & Bomber Deterrence



When Gen. Curtis E. LeMay became commander of the Strategic Air Command in 1948 he was appalled at the lack of professionalism in his bomber crews. LeMay rebuilt SAC and, in the process, presided over a huge change in the life of Omaha and Bellevue.

that SAC carried out.
You can see a history of SAC's deterrence role through the arms race
and Cuban missile crisis here
.
LeMay had been born in Ohio and saw his first plane at the age of four or five. He later said he was excited and ran after it. After graduating from college in 1928 he enrolled in the Army Air Corps. (The separate Air Force was not formed until after WWII.) In the 1930s, he was a decorated navigator and pilot. He took part in the first mass flight of B-17 bombers to South Americans in 1938, and he developed formation techniques that were later adapted to the B-29 Flying Fortresses over the Pacific.
At the end of the war, the General made a dramatic return to the United States, piloting a Super Fortress B-29 on a non-stop record flight from Japan to Chicago. When he arrived in the States, he was assigned to the Pentagon as the first Deputy Chief of Air Staff for Research and Development.
In October, 1947, General LeMay was selected to command the U.S. Air Force in Europe, where he organized air operations for the Berlin Airlift. As the Iron Curtain was descending between East and West Germany, Berlin was left in East Germany. The Soviets wanted to take over the entire city, including the sections of Berlin controlled by America and Britain. The Soviets imposed a blockade on West Berlin, cutting off all land and rail routes into the Western sectors. The Western Allies responded immediately by mounting a tremendous airlift. Under LeMay's direction, C-54 cargo planes that could each carry 10-tons began supplying the city on July 1. By the fall the airlift was bringing in an average of 5,000 tons of supplies a day. The airlift went on for 11 months — 213,000 flights the brought in 1.7 million tons of food and fuel to Berlin. The Soviets gave up and opened up the land corridors to the West.
Within a year, LeMay was back in the United States to take over of the newly-formed Strategic Air Command at Offutt Air Force Base. He was responsible for all of the nation's nuclear bombers and saw that an effective deterrence to the Soviets required a strong, threatening nuclear force. One of his first acts was to order a mock "attack" on Dayton, Ohio. All of the SAC bombers missed their targets — most by a couple of miles or so. LeMay was appalled and began an intense program of training and building up air bases around the country and eventually the world. It worked. Many who served under LeMay remember him as a tough leader who still cared for them deeply. Historian Vladislav Zubok says that Russian leader Joseph Stalin was enormously alarmed at the buildup of SAC:
"He [Stalin] had no — had nothing to — had no means to react to it, to deal with this situation. So he came up with desperate countermeasures almost. For instance one of, one of his reactions to that buildup of the SAC forces was to concentrate an enormous armored fist in Eastern Europe and Central Europe. And the idea behind it was — that was when these immense tank armies of, appeared in Central Europe — the idea was, okay, if they want to intimidate us with their, from their air bases, their strike from the air bases, we can intimidate them by our armor groups in Central Europe. If they strike at us, we strike at Western Europe. Of course it was not the same thing, but Stalin could not reach the United States. He was not capable of reaching the United States. No delivery means. Missile designers were still in the very beginning."
B-52 with armament

At Offutt, LeMay oversaw the building of over 2,000 family housing units for the increasing numbers of service personnel. He worked closely with Omaha civic leaders to build more housing in the city. His daughter, Jane LeMay Lodge, remembers when they moved to Bellevue (the town closest to Offutt) that it was "a town of 1,500 people. Mission, the main street, was the only paved road in town." Bellevue is now the third largest city in the state, behind Omaha and Lincoln, with 50,000 residents.
In nine years as the SAC leader, LeMay built an all-jet bomber force from the remnants of World War II. Under his leadership, plans were laid for the development of an intercontinental ballistic missile capability.
After SAC, LeMay was Chief of Staff of the Air Force and was involved in the Cuban missile crisis. He retired in 1965. He made a short foray into politics when he ran as a vice presidential candidate with George Wallace. General LeMay passed away on October 1, 1990.

HERE A BOMARC MISSILE AT SUFFOLK COUNTY AFB
IS SHOWN IN ITS LAUNCH SHED WITH ROOF RETRACTED











The Bomarc was the only surface-to-air missile ever deployed by the U.S. Air Force. All other U.S. land-based SAMs were and are under the control of the U.S. Army.
In 1946, Boeing started to study surface-to-air guided missiles under the USAAF project MX-606. By 1950, Boeing had launched more than 100 test rockets in various configurations, all under the designator XSAM-A-1GAPA (Ground-to-Air Pilotless Aircraft). Because these tests were very promising, Boeing received a USAF contract in 1949 to develop a pilotless interceptor (a term then used by the USAF for air-defense guided missiles) under project MX-1599. The MX-1599 missile was to be a ramjet-powered, nuclear-armed long-range surface-to-air missile to defend the continental USA from high-flying bombers. The Michigan Aerospace Research Center (MARC) was added to the project soon afterwards, and this gave the new missile its name Bomarc (for Boeing and MARC). In 1951, the USAF decided to emphasize its point of view that missiles were nothing else than pilotless aircraft by assigning aircraft designators to its missile projects, and anti-aircraft missiles received F-for-Fighter designations. The Bomarc became the F-99.
Test flights of XF-99 test vehicles began in September 1952 and continued through early 1955. The XF-99 tested only the liquid-fueled booster rocket, which would accelerate the missile to ramjet ignition speed. In February 1955, tests of the XF-99A propulsion test vehicles began. These included live ramjets, but still had no guidance system or warhead. The designation YF-99A had been reserved for the operational test vehicles. In August 1955, the USAF discontinued the use of aircraft-like type designators for missiles, and the XF-99A and YF-99A became XIM-99A and YIM-99A, respectively. Originally the USAF had allocated the designationIM-69, but this was changed (possibly at Boeing's request to keep number 99) to IM-99 in October 1955. In October 1957, the first YIM-99A production-representative prototype flew with full guidance, and succeeded to pass the target within destructive range. In late 1957, Boeing received the production contract for the IM-99A Bomarc A interceptor missile, and in September 1959, the first IM-99A squadron became operational

The operational IM-99A missiles were based horizontally in semi-hardened shelters ("coffins"). After the launch order, the shelter's roof would slide open, and the missile raised to the vertical. After the missile was supplied with fuel for the booster rocket, it would be launched by the Aerojet General LR59-AJ-13 booster. After supersonic speed was reached, the Marquardt RJ43-MA-3 ramjets would ignite and propel the missile to its cruise speed and altitude of Mach 2.8 at 20000 m (65000 ft). The Bomarc was guided to the target by ground commands from SAGE (Semi-Automatic Ground Environment), whose long-range radars tracked the enemy aircraft and the interceptor aircraft and missiles. When the Bomarc was within 16 km (10 miles) of the target, its own Westinghouse AN/DPN-34 radar guided the missile to the interception point. The maximum range of the IM-99A was 400 km (250 miles), and it was fitted with either a conventional high-explosive or a 10 kT W-40 nuclear fission warhead.






In June 1963, the IM-99A and IM-99B missiles were redesignated as CIM-10A and CIM-10B, respectively. The Bomarc A was retired soon afterwards, the last CIM-10A being phased out in December 1964. Withdrawal of the CIM-10B also began in the mid-1960s, and by 1969 most missile sites had been deactivated. Finally, in April 1972, the last Bomarc B in USAF service was retired. The Bomarc, designed to intercept relatively slow manned bombers, had become a useless asset in the era of the intercontinental ballistic missile.
The remaining Bomarc missiles were used by all armed services as high-speed target drones for tests of other air-defense missiles. The Bomarc A and Bomarc B targets were designated as CQM-10A and CQM-10B, respectively. When production had ceased in 1965, about 700 Bomarc missiles of all versions had been built by Boeing.

The CIM-10 Bomarc (originally IM-99) was the product of the Bomarc Missile Program. The Program was a joint United States of America--Canada effort between 1957 and 1971 to protect against the USSR bomber threat. The Bomarc was a joint development with Boeing and Michigan Aeronautical Research Center. It involved the deployment of tactical stations armed with Bomarc missiles along the east and west coasts of North America and the central areas of the continent. BOMARC and the SAGE guidance system were phased out in the early 1970s since they seemed to be ineffective and costly. Neither of these systems was ever used in combat, so while their combat effictiveness remains untested, they are still perceived as having been an important deterrent.

The supersonic Bomarc missiles were the first long-range anti-aircraft missiles in the world. They were capable of carrying conventional or nuclear warheads. Their intended role in defence was in an intrusion prevention perimeter. Bomarcs aligned on the eastern and western coasts of North America would theoretically launch and destroy enemy bombers before the bombers could drop their payloads on industrial regions.

The name Bomarc was created by merging the names of two organizations: Boeing 'BO' and the Michigan Aeronautical Research Center 'MARC'. The Program was authorized in 1949 and originally designated F-99, a fighter designation but was quickly redesignated "IM" for Interceptor Missile, retaining the -99 series number.

The "Bomarc IM-99A" was the first production Bomarc missile, test flown in February 1955. It had an operational radius of 200 miles (~320 km) and was designed to fly at Mach 2.5-2.8 at a cruising altitude of 60,000 feet (18.3 km). It was 46.6 ft (14.2 m) long and weighed 15,500 lb (7,020 kg). Its armament was either a 1,000 pound (455 kg) conventional warhead or a W40 nuclear warhead (7-10 kiloton yield). A liquid fuelled rocket engine boosted the Bomarc to Mach 2, when its Marquardt RJ43-MA-3 ramjet engines would take over for the remainder of the flight.

The Bomarc relied on the Semi Automatic Ground Environment (SAGE), an automated control system used by NORAD for detecting, tracking and intercepting enemy bomber aircraft. SAGE allowed for remote launching of the Bomarc missiles, which were housed in a constant combat-ready basis in individual launch shelters in remote areas. At the height of the program, there were 14 Bomarc sites located in the United States and two in Canada.

Boeing built 570 Bomarc missiles between 1957 and 1964, 269 CIM-10A, 301 CIM-10B.

Here Is A Portion Of The New York State Defense Emergency Act (the rest of this act is located towards bottom of blog) 
Section 1. Short title. This act shall be known and may be cited and referred to as the "New York state defense emergency act." § 2. Declaration of purpose and findings. The legislature hereby finds that there exists a serious danger that this state will be subjected to enemy attack, including attack by atomic bombs or other radiological weapons. On December sixteenth, nineteen hundred fifty, because of the grave threat to national security, the president of the United States declared a state of national emergency, summoning all state and local leaders and officials to cooperate fully with the military and civil defense agencies of the United States. The federal civil defense act of nineteen hundred fifty passed by congress on January second, nineteen hundred fifty-one and signed by the president on January twelfth, nineteen hundred fifty-one, as amended by public law eighty-five-six hundred six declares it to be the policy and intent of the congress that the responsibility for civil defense shall be vested jointly in the federal government and the states and their political subdivisions.k Nations with communist governments presently dominate one-third of the population of the world. Some of theaided and assisted the nations which have perpetrated aggression in Korea. Acts of communist aggression have occurred in other parts of Asia and in Europe. These communist governments have conducted incessant propaganda attacks upon the United States and have engaged in repeated demonstrations of hostility. The president of the United States has stated that in one of these nations there has occurred an atomic explosion. Ourse nations have military leaders have informed us that these nations possess bombers capable of flying an atomic bomb to any point in the state of New Yor. The national security resources board has in its plan for organizing civil defense stated that an atomic bomb exploded in a large city can destroy virtually all property and lives within a radius of three-fourths of a mile from the point of explosion and cause great damage at even greater distance. It is estimated that a single such explosion would kill nearly eighty thousand persons and severely injure many more. In view of the professed determination of the government of the United States to resist further communist aggression, and because of the likelihood of resort to atomic and radiological weapons in the event of further conflict between this nation and communist aggressors, the peril to the people of this state is sufficiently great that the precautions embodied in this act must be taken. The present inadequate size of our armed forces, their lack of equipment, critical shortages in essential goods and certain production facilities make necessary intensified mobilization to the end that the defense of the United States be strengthened as speedily as possible. Under all of the circumstances it is obvious that the enormity of the defense effort which must be made by the United States will cause great dislocation to its normal economy. One of the further purposes of this act is to minimize the hardship resulting from these dislocations, and to permit the fullest participation by the people of this state in the defense effort. It is the purpose of this legislation to meet these dangers and problems with the least possible interference with the existing division of the powers of the government and the least possible infringement of the liberties of the people, including the freedom of speech, press and assembly. § 2
This Act Passed By NYS Government Back When The Cold War Was Heating Up, It Scared America That The Soviet Union Had Exploded Their First Atomic Bomb,Korea Was A Hot War Or Police Action And Communist Infiltrators Were Said To Be Stealing Defense Secrets And Sabotaging America, The Statements That Are Made About The Overwhelming Communist World Takeover And Their Willingness To Use Atomic Bombs In Their Quest For World Domination Show The Atmosphere Of The 1950s And The Cold War, This Emergency Act Is Priceless History.

COM HAS COME THROUGH AGAIN WITH THIS CLASSIC THAT TAKES THE COLD WAR VIEWER THROUGH THE EFFORT BEING TAKEN TO FIND BUILDINGS THAT WILL OFFER PROTECTION AND SHOWS HOW THE COMMUNITY SHELTER PROGRAM AND OTHER OFFSHOOTS OF THIS ARE IMPORTANT TO THE SURVIVAL OF THE UNITED STATES IF IT WERE TO COME UNDER A NUCLEAR ATTACK AND AMERICAS CIVILIANS DESERVE PROTECTION AND THE OFFICE OF CIVIL DEFENSE WAS PUTTING IN TO ACTION ONE OF THE MOST SERIOUS EFFORTS THIS GOVERNMENT HAS UNDERTAKEN TO PROTECT ITS PEOPLE, ALSO ONE OF THE BIGGEST POINTS OF THIS MOVIE IS THE UNVEILING OF THE "FALLOUT SHELTER SIGN" A VERY SERIOUS SIGN OF DARK REFLECTIVE ORANGE YELLOW AND BLACK WITH ITS THREE TRIANGLES POINTING DOWN AND THE WORDS "FALLOUT SHELTER" THE SIGN HAS ALWAYS EVEN AS A KID PROVOKED A RESPONSE INSIDE FEAR,SERIOUSNESS,IMPORTANCE,SAFETY? MANY FEELINGS GO THROUGH MY MIND, TO ME THE SIGN HAS A ALMOST EERIE AURA TO IT WHEN IT REFLECTS OFF A BRICK WALL AT NIGHT CAUGHT IN THE HEADLIGHTS OF A CAR OR IN A ABANDONED HOSPITAL TUNNEL FALLOUT SHELTER IN THE LIGHT OF A FLASHLIGHT, THE COLORS EVEN THE THOUGHT OF WHAT IT REALLY MEANS, PROTECTION FROM THE MOST HORRIBLE VISIONS OF HELL ON EARTH MAN HAS EVER OR NEVER SEEN.
THE MOVIE GOES ON SHOWING THE SHELTER PROGRAMS STOCK TO BE INCLUDED IN ALL MARKED / POSTED SHELTERS RADIATION MEASURING DEVICES,FOOD AND WATER STOCK,MEDICAL KITS, AND THEY WILL BE LOCATED IN AREAS OF BUILDINGS OFFERING THE BEST PROTECTION FROM RADIOACTIVE FALLOUT
THIS MOVIE WAS PERHAPS THE FIRST TO UNVEIL THE NEW SHELTER SYSTEM THAT WOULD BE PART OF EVERY CITY,STATE,COUNTY IN THE UNITED STATES, NEW CONSTRUCTION WOULD DESIGN BUILDINGS TO OFFER PROTECTION FROM RADIATION PENETRATING THIN WALLS,SCHOOLS WOULD BE DESIGNED THE SAME AND BE STOCKED TO SHELTER EVERY STUDENT THAT ATTENDED THE SCHOOL, EVEN BUILDINGS WITH NO BASEMENTS AND INTERIOR STAIRCASES WERE USED AS SHELTERS, 
CONELRAD HAS ONCE AGAIN SHOWN ITS DEDICATION TO UNEARTHING AND SHOWING ALL THINGS ATOMIC AND THEIR YOU TUBE CHANNEL CONELRAD 6401240 HAS A VERY LARGE OFFERING AND THEIR WEBSITE IS A LIBRARY OF CIVIL DEFENSE,MOVIES ON ATOMIC THEMED PLOTS,EVEN MUSIC ABOUT THE ATOMIC AGE AND ITS OFFERINGS AND ALSO INCLUDES PLENTY OF PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS AND ATOMIC EPHEMERA , AND ATOMIC AGE PAMPHLETS AND PROPAGANDA ART AND SHOULD NOT BE OVERLOOKED

  THE CLASSIC FILMS OF THE PERIOD THAT WERE TO PRESENT RADIOACTIVITY IN A EASY AND UNDERSTANDABLE WAY WITHOUT SCARING AMERICA, ...IT COVERS THE NUCLEAR EXPLOSION AND HOW DEBRIS SUCKED IN TO THE FIREBALL CREATES FALLOUT AND HOW EVERY AMERICAN SHOULD LEARN TO AVOID IT THROUGH TIME ,DISTANCE, AND SHIELDING.AND EXPLAINS THE PUBLIC FALLOUT SHELTER SYSTEM, AND HOW RADIATION IS YOUR FRIEND ONLY WHEN THE TREATED WITH RESPECT .AND IF ANYTHING IS LEARNED IT IS THE CORRECT WAY TO PRONOUNCE "ROENTGEN"

IT SURE HAS HELPED ME, I HAVE MY OWN COPY OF THIS BUT FOR SOME REASON IT CANNOT BE DOWNLOADED, FALLOUT SHELTERS AND THE NATIONAL FALLOUT SHELTER SURVEY AND PLAN COULD OF BEEN SOMETHING IF MORE AMERICANS THOUGHT OF HELPING THIS EFFORT AND NOT IGNORING IT IF YOU NOTICE ONE OF THE POSTS ABOVE HAS SOVIET CIVIL DEFENSE IN ACTION OVER 15 YEARS AFTER THIS MOVIE AND TRAINED CIVILIANS TO PROTECT THEIR PROPERTY AND WORK IT IS A SOBERING LOOK SINCE AMERICANS ABANDONED THEIR SHELTER PROGRAM YEARS AGO WITH THE PEACE NO WAR IDEA, GREAT JUST GET THE WORLD TO FALL IN STEP WITH THAT AND IT WOULD BE PARADISE, UNFORTUNATELY DURING THE YEARS WE CAME TO CLOSE DURING WORLD INCIDENTS AND ACCIDENTS, THE SHELTER SYSTEM WAS TO ALLOW NON COMBATANTS A PLACE TO RIDE OUT A NUCLEAR ATTACK AND BY BEING PRO SHELTER IT DID NOT MAKE YOU A WAR MONGER IT WAS TO MITIGATE ANY DAMAGE OR DEATH IN THE EVENT AND IN THE EVENT OF ONE THERE WOULD NOT BE PLACES TO GO BECAUSE THE LACK OF CIVILIAN PARTICIPATION AND THAT WOULD SEAL THE FATES OF MANY WHO WOULD WANT TO LIVE, WELL THESE MOVIES SHOW A TIME WHEN A NUCLEAR EXCHANGE WAS LIKELY AND THE EFFORT TO GIVE AMERICANS A CHANCE TO SURVIVE INSTEAD OF JUST LAYING DOWN AND DYING. THANKS TO THOSE WHO BELIEVED AND SPENT CARERS AND TIME VOLUNTEERING DURING THIS PERIOD IN AMERICAN HISTORY AND THE NEXT TIME YOU SEE A FALLOUT SHELTER THINK ABOUT WHAT IF?     





AMONG THE MANY ROLES OF CIVIL DEFENSE ,  EDUCATION WAS PART OF THEIR MISSION ,THIS FILM SHOWS TO A 1965 AUDIENCE WHAT A ATOMIC WEAPON DETONATION LOOKS LIKE, THE ACTION OF WHATEVER IS SUCKED UP IN TO THE FIREBALL BECOMES RADIOACTIVE  FALLOUT DOWN WIND, REQUIRING A  PROTECTION LEVEL OF TIME-DISTANCE AND SHIELDING THE USUAL BASIC DRILL,THIS WAS SHOWN TO THE PUBLIC POSSIBLY HIGH SCHOOL KIDS OR COMMUNITY CENTERS AROUND THE US, ITS BASIC STATEMENT IS EVEN IF YOU HAVE A PUBLIC SHELTER NEARBY A HOME FALLOUT SHELTER IS A MUCH BETTER PLACE TO BE FOR 2 WEEKS OR LONGER AND HOW KEEPING FOOD STORED FOR SUCH AN EVENT WILL CONTRIBUTE TO A POSITIVE OUTCOME. IT WOULD BE PRETTY HARD TO BE IN A MUSTY BASEMENT OF A DEPARTMENT STORE SITTING IN THE DARK FOR 14 OR MORE DAYS WITH THE EMOTIONS OF OTHERS AND LACK OF COMFORTS,ONE PARTICULAR OCD FILM ON FALLOUT SHELTER LIVING HAS PEOPLE STROLLING UP TO THE PUBLIC SHELTER FROM AN EMPTY STREET WITH AN OVERNIGHT BAG WITHOUT A CARE IN THE WORLD, THATS SOME REAL US GOVERNMENT PROPAGANDA,

(1968) USAF SURVIVE TO FIGHT ATOMIC WEAPON HITS ADC BASE JETS SCRAMBLE INTERCEPT SOVIET ATTACKERS

THIS IS A CLASSIC UNITED STATES AIR FORCE TRAINING FILM THAT IS BASED ON SURVIVABILITY OF USAF BASE OPERATIONS IN THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES AFTER A NUCLEAR ATTACK,BASES LIKE THIS ONE WERE SCATTERED THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES DURING THE COLD WAR PERIOD THE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE AND RESPONSIBILITY THESE MEN HAD HAD HANDLING NUCLEAR WEAPONS THAT WERE USED ON INTERCEPTOR AIRCRAFT ,THE # AM SCRAMBLES INTO THE WINTER NIGHT NOT KNOWING IF THIS WAS FOR REAL AS BASE AIRCRAFT PEELED OUT LAUNCHING IN PAIRS SC REAMING INTO THE WINTER NIGHT WAITING FOR WORD OF WHAT WAS GOING ON. THE AIRMEN AT THESE BASES KNEW ANY ATTACK ON THE US THEY WOULD BE AMONG THE FIRST TO KNOW AND FIRST TO GO WHILE THE COMMUNITIES OUTSIDE THE GATES NEVER KNEW HOW CLOSE THEY WERE TO WAR AS THE BASES WENT TO DIFFERENT DEFCON LEVELS, THIS WAS NOT INFORMATION FOR THE PUBLIC. THE FILM STARTS AT NIGHT AND THE SAC AIR DEFENSE COMMAND LAUNCHES ITS F-101 INTERCEPTOR AIR CRAFT AND PREPARES TO RIDE OUT A NUCLEAR STRIKE AS CONFIRMATION OF INCOMING MISSILES IS CONFIRMED. THANKS TO A CLIMATE OF GUARDED DEFENSE THE AIR FORCE BASE IS ABLE TO BUILD DEFENSIVE AND SHELTER FACILITIES TO SURVIVE AND FIGHT AND AS A NUCLEAR DETONATION IS CONFIRMED ON BASE THE AIR FORCE BEGINS TO DEAL WITH THE PROBLEMS SO ITS AIR WING CAN COME BACK AND RE-ARM AND RE-FUEL A GREAT SUBJECT THAT U.S. MILITARY FORCES HAD TO PLAN FOR AND TRAIN AND THIS FILM SHOWS WHAT THEY EXPECTED, THE REAL QUESTION IS IT REALISTIC IN ITS EXPECTATION? THE ONE THING IS THAT IT IS PRICELESS THAT THE USAF MADE THIS TRAINING FILM AND ITs QUOTES LIKE "HAVE NO UMBRELLAS,IF IT STARTS TO RAIN WE WILL LET YOU KNOW." AND "YOU CALL US BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T WE WILL BE CALLING YOU" WEIRD,.. BUT STILL GREAT PROPAGANDA!FILMED AT A SAC AIR DEFENSE INTERCEPTOR BASE LOCATED IN OXNARD, OXNARD AFB CALIFORNIA 1967 THIS IS BASICALLY WHEN CLOSING OF SAC ADC BASES WAS GOING ON ALL OVER (SUFFOLK COUNTY AFB LONG ISLAND NEW YORK) RESPONSIBLE FOR THE NYC AREA FOR MOST OF THE COLD WAR.DURING 1968- EARLY 1970s MOST OF THESE AIR FORCE ADC UNITS WENT OVER TO FIGHT IN VIETNAM AND THAILAND AS FORWARD AIR CONTROL AND MUNITION LOADERS FOR USAF STRIKE PLANES USING IRON BOMBS INSTEAD OF ATOMIC MUNITIONS BOMBING NVA BASES AND NORTH VIETNAM AND THE ADC PILOTS AND BACKSEATERS WENT OVER ALSO, TO ME THESE GUYS REALLY SERVED THEIR COUNTRY PLUS ONE AND DESERVE BIG RESPECT , MY HATS OFF TO THE USAF AIRMEN OF ADC/SAC AND VIETNAM/THAILAND/LAOS

DEFCON THE ULTIMATE NUCLEAR WAR SIMULATION

NYC EMERGENCY BROADCAST PLEASE STAND BY FOR OFFICIAL INFORMATION (1980-1984)

USAF/SAC AT DEFCON ONE AND CONFIDENCE IS HIGH! "EXECUTIVE DESCISION" USAF'S NUCLEAR POSTURE

PROBABLY THE MOST TELLING STORY OF USAF MIGHT AND POWER AS WAR IS UNLEASHED ON THE AGRESSOR NATION WHO IS LATER IDENTIFIED TO BE THE SOVIET UNION, THE STOCK FOOTAGE OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS BEING DROPPED BY B-47 STRATOJETS and B-52 BOMBERS ARE FROM ONCE CLASSIFIED USAF NUCLEAR TEST OPS. MOST OF THIS ENTIRE FILM IS FROM CLASSIFIED WARPLANS AND SPECIAL OPERATIONS, THIS HOMAGE TO SAC AND STRATEGIC AIR COMMANDS DEDICATION TO MISSION IS A JEWEL AND FROM A TIME WHERE THE WORLD WAS A TINDERBOX READY FOR SOMEONE TO STRIKE THE SPARK AND IGNITE A WORLDWIDE NUCLEAR CONFLAGRATION WHERE LIFE MOST LIKELY WOULD OF WENT THE WAY OF THE DINOSAUR AND ONLY MILLIONS OF YEARS LATER A FOSSILIZED REMAINS OF MAN WOULD BE DISCOVERED BY THE NEXT GENERATION THAT CAME FROM THE ASHES OF THE OLD, THIS FILM IS NOT KNOWN IF IT WAS EVER SEEN OR VIEWED OTHER THAN A HANDFUL OF HIGH RANKING USAF OFFICERS, SEE THE DESCRIPTION AND INFORMATION FROM THE NUCLEAR VAULT.COM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The Power of Decision" may be the first (and perhaps the only) U.S. government film dramatizing nuclear war decision-making. Commissioned by the Strategic Air Command in 1956, the film has the look of a 1950s TV drama, but the subject is the ultimate Cold War nightmare. By the end of the film, after the U.S. Air Force has implemented war plan "Quick Strike" following a Soviet surprise attack, millions of Americans, Russians, Europeans, and Japanese are dead. The narrator, a Colonel Dodd, asserts that "nobody wins a nuclear war because both sides are sure to suffer terrible damage." Despite the "catastrophic" damage, one of the film’s operating assumptions is that defeat is avoidable as long as the adversary cannot impose its "will" on the United States. The film’s last few minutes suggest that the United States would prevail because of the "success" of its nuclear air offensive. Moscow, not the United States, is sending out pleas for a cease-fire. The conviction that the United States could prevail was a doctrinal necessity because Air Force leaders assumed the decisiveness of air power. The founding fathers of the U.S. Air Force came out of World War II with an unshakeable, if exaggerated, conviction that the strategic bombing of Germany and Japan had been decisive for the Allied victory and that air power would be crucial in future conflicts. (Note 1) The film’s title: "Power of Decision" embodies that conviction. The title itself is a reference to a 1948 statement by General George C. Kenney, the Strategic Air Command’s first commander-in-chief: "A war in which either or both opponents use atomic bombs will be over in a matter of days...The Air Force that is superior in its capability of destruction plays the dominant role and has the power of decision." (Note 2) A confident statement made by one of the characters, General "Pete" Larson, near the close of reel 6 flows from that assumption: the Soviets "must quit; we have the air and the power and they know it." The story begins with Colonel Dodd, standing in the underground command post of the "Long Range Offense Force" (oddly, the Strategic Air Command is never mentioned by name). Dodd discusses the Force’s strike capabilities, its mechanisms for keeping track of its strategic assets, and its war plans. That hundreds of bombers, based in U.S. territories and overseas bases, are ready to launch at a moment’s notice is the "surest way to prevent war." Dodd does not think that the Soviets are likely to strike, but if deterrence fails and the Soviets launch an attack, "this is what will happen." What "happens" is the initial detection by U.S. air defense network of the approach of Soviet bombers over the Arctic Circle. That leads to General Larson’s decision to launch the SAC alert force under plan "Quick Strike"; airborne and nuclear-armed alert bombers fly toward the Soviet periphery, but stay at position until they receive an attack order (this was the concept of "Fail Safe" or "Positive Control" although those terms were not used in the film). About an hour after the alert force is launched, General Larson receives reports of attacks on U.S. bases, followed by more information on Soviet nuclear attacks on cities and military bases in Japan and Western Europe. "That does it," General Turner (one of Larson’s deputies) exclaims. He soon receives a call on the red phone from the Joint Chiefs, who with the President, are in a protected command post. The president has ordered the execution of "Quick Strike," releasing bombers and missiles to strike the Soviet Union. This simultaneous bomber-missile "double punch" is aimed at "all elements of [Soviet] air power" [bomber bases] along with "war making and war sustaining resources," which meant strikes on urban-industrial areas and urban populations. To depict the undepictable, the film’s producers use stock footage of nuclear tests and missile and bomber launches. Once it is evident that the Soviets have launched a surprise air attack, Colonel Dodd observes that "By giving up the initiative, the West must expect to take the first blow." This statement is not developed, but for Air Force planners, "initiative" meant a preemptive attack or a first strike. By the early 1950, senior military planners and defense officials had begun considering the possibility of pre-emptive attacks on the basis of strategic warning; that is, if the United States intelligence warning system collected reliable information on an impending Soviet attack, decision-makers could approve strikes against Soviet military forces to disrupt it. Consistent with this, Strategic Air Command war plans assumed "two basic modes" for executing strike plans [See Document One below]. () One was retaliation against a surprise attack; the other "plan was based on the assumption that the United States had strategic warning and had decided to take the initiative." The SAC strike force would then be "launched to penetrate en masse prior to the enemy attack; the main target would be the enemy’s retaliatory capability." In the last part of reel 6, Air Force intelligence briefings review the destruction of the Soviet military machine, including destruction of air bases, weapons storage centers, and government control centers, among other targets. "Target M," presumably Moscow, has "been destroyed" by a nuclear weapon which struck 300 yards from the aiming point. The Soviet attack has done calamitous damage to the United States, with 60 million casualties, including 20 million wounded, but evidence was becoming available of the "success" of the U.S. air offensive. The Soviet Air Force has been reduced to a handful of aircraft, it had stopped launching nuclear strikes outside of its territory, and SACEUR [Supreme Allied Commander Europe] reports the "complete disintegration of resistance" by Soviet ground forces. Moreover, cease-fire requests are coming in from the Soviets. In this context, General Larson’s certainty that the "Soviets must quit" conveyed prevailing assumptions about the value of strategic air power. Around the time when "The Power of Decision" as being produced, a statement by SAC Commander-in-Chief General Curtis LeMay made explicit what was implicit in Larson’s observation. In an address before the Air Force’s Scientific Advisory Board in 1957 [see Document Two], LeMay argued that U.S. strategic forces could not be an effective deterrent unless they were "clearly capable of winning under operational handicaps of bad weather and no more than tactical warning." And by winning, LeMay said he meant "achieving a condition wherein the enemy cannot impose his will on us, but we can impose our will on him." Larson’s statement about control of the air dovetailed exactly with LeMay’s assumptions about winning. Little is known about the production and distribution of "The Power of Decision," or even if it was actually shown. According to the history of the Air Photographic and Charting Service for January through June 1957, on 28 May 1956, the Strategic Air Command requested the service to produce the film, which would be classified Secret. SAC leaders may have wanted such a film for internal indoctrination and training purposes, to help officers and airmen prepare themselves for the worst active-duty situation that they could encounter. Perhaps the relatively unruffled style of the film’s performers was to serve as a model for SAC officers if they ever had to follow orders that could produce a nuclear holocaust. In any event, the script for "Power of Decision" was approved on 10 May 1957 and a production planning conference took place on 29 May 1957. The contract productions section of the Air Photographic and Charting Service was the film’s producing unit. The next step was to find actors with security clearances because even the synopsis of the film was classified secret (although later downgraded to "official use only"). As the Air Force was not in the business of hiring actors, the production unit engaged the services of MPO Productions, a New York-based firm which produced commercials and industrial films. [References to MPO, Inc. are on the index cards and on "The End" frame at the close of reel 6]. What happened next, when the work on the film was completed, SAC’s assessment of the project, and whether, when, or where the film was shown, cannot presently be determined, although the information may be in the living memories of participants or viewers from those days. Note: The relatively poor quality of this digital reproduction reflects the condition of the original reels as turned over to the National Archives by the Air Force.

THEY ARE NOT FOR FIGHTING ON FOREIGN SOIL AND IF WE HAVE TO WE CAN SEND B-52S ON BOMBING MISSIONS, WE NEED TO LOOK BACK AT WHAT THIS NATIONS FOUNDATIONS WERE AND REBUILD IT, BECAUSE SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT!

USAF/DEFENSE NUCLEAR AGENCY (1970) MEETING THE TERRORIST THREAT- GUARDING USAF NUCLEAR FACILITIES

- Meeting the Terrorist Threat, Produced by the Defense Nuclear Agency - Early 1970's - 7:30 - Color - Since the emergence of the terrorist threat, the U.S. Governments concern about the possible terrorism against nuclear facilities has intensified. This video is a dramatization. It shows how the Government has responded to this threat. The video depicts nuclear security activities at an early nuclear storage site and how a small unarmed force of intruders easily enters under the security fence surrounding the site. The protective force subdues the intruders easily. In another scene, a well-armed terrorist team enters the base and kills a roving patrol with a well-placed sniper. Security forces finally overcome the terrorists after a superior counter-force arrives. On a third entry, a terrorist team enters the site under the cover of a fellow terrorist, hidden in the forest, armed with a heavy machine gun. This terrorist team reaches and penetrates a storage igloo after the roving patrol is killed, and the rapid response force is destroyed. However, the terrorists do not escape. When the superior security force appears with helicopter support and an armored personnel carrier, the terrorists, including the machine gunner, are killed. Since this film was made, the Department of Energy (DOE) has constantly improved the training and tactics of the security forces at each installation as well as the in-place security systems. With its modern day posture, it would be highly improbable that a small group of armed individuals could forcibly enter any DOE facility and escape with a nuclear weapon or any special nuclear
