    I wonder how many people realise the US have accidentally dropped 6 nuclear weapons that have never been recovered , and 32 lost in accidents.

    My wife has written a book (under revision) about the one dropped in Wassaw sound (true) and recovered by terrorists (fiction) , its actually still there , The Navy can't find it.

    Hi

    Wow. What an interesting bit of history. Even with just a tiny bit of Pt in there one could make a dirty bomb. I bet there would still be close scrutiny of any boats or divers that go to that location.
