Jimmy Carter got a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in keeping North Korea from developing nucs. When will they make him return the award and the money?
He also halted our B1 bomber, MX (Peacekeeper / MIRV Strategic Nuke) and Neutron Bomb (via Lance Missiles etc) programs
And I THINK he got SALT I and maybe SALT II signed/ratified
He should have gotten the price if , for no other reason, he got tactical / theater level nuke use out of our Army's hands
What does history say about those decisions?
B1 - never emerged with a significant role and sure as HELL didn't replace the B52
(NICE CALL JIMMUH)
Peacekeeper Missile - went online with Reagan and was exponentially more powerful than the Peacekeeper's that the USAF had online......I've seen a few launched at 30th Space Wing before they were retired for emitting hydrochloric acid all over the place --- and maybe being too expensive?
BAD CALL PEANUT BOY
It was good to have it online as a strategic asset while closing out the Cold War
Overwhelming force with -- what was at the time ---- best in the word accuracy
Neutron Bomb"

I don't know if it went online in Europe under Reagan officially or not
I don't know whether or not I have a brother and a former coworker who were both Lance missiles -- and later Pershing's
I don't know if there was a "Q Setting" on the Lance system or not that would designate N-Bombb use
((THE ORIGINAL N-Bomb))))
With the design that called for purposely release of massive amounts of radiation and a much lower blast yield -- this was a different kind of Nuke
Arguably even crueler
We dropped it and pulled it out in the early 80's I believe
South Africa and I think Israel built similar models with different delivery vehicles --- but never deployed or used them
GOOD CALL -- not even sure the 50's era version of the Cold War would have wanted that thing around
