It is rather disturbing the amount of military nuclear accidents that have taken place since the 1950's. Way to many to list :o
I always thought that the USAF had a rather blase attitude about fly nuclear weapons around our skies. Rather reflected by the number of accidents that happened time and time and time and time again. Uncle Sam is was not quick to learn from his mistakes ::)
