"Recovered" = Scraped up what was left of it. Not quite as bad as Palamares or Greenland, though...

Recall the one in the Southeast? Dropped one (an unloaded one) on a farm. Nearly had an airman do a Slim Pickens down with it, too.

And Russia says they're moving back to 24hr alert with their bombers. I hope we don't follow...
