Six members of staff were reportedly dismissed following a failed safety inspection | The US Air Force fired six members serving at a major nuclear base after their units failed a safety inspection, CNN reported on Wednesday, citing sources. Eighth Air Force command announced on Tuesday that it had dismissed two senior commanders and four of their subordinates at Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota, which hosts 28 B-52H Stratofortress nuclear-capable bombers and 165 Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missiles.  The nuclear surety inspection (NSI) could be only passed or failed, with no middle ground, and its results are classified. The US Air Force’s NSI program seeks to “ensure nuclear weapons and their components do not become vulnerable to loss, theft, sabotage, damage, or unauthorized use.”  In a notorious incident in 2007, a US B-52 bomber took off from Minot base while mistakenly loaded with six nuclear-armed missiles. In 2014, Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana was hit by another scandal which saw half of its 183 missile-launch officers accused of cheating to obtain higher scores in their monthly proficiency tests.
