Air Force 16th Munitions Squadron Activated to Oversee Nuclear Weapons Maintenance

Hopefully, this new Air Force squadron will do a better job than the previous groups responsible for maintaining our nuclear weapons, because many other groups seem to lose nuclear weapons on a regular basis.

A new squadron was activated at Malmstrom Air Force Base on Tuesday to help oversee the maintenance of nuclear weapons.

The 16th Munitions Squadron was formed as part of a re-alignment of responsibilities from Air Force Space Command to the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center.

The squadron is part of a larger munitions maintenance group under the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center.
