Mexus Gold US (MXSG)

But an odd thing, 321 Bob and I agree the opening gold mines in Viet/Laos karst mtns have greatest danger in OUR unexploded weapons from that era. He's gone back I didn't. Few reasons for them, usual fusing was both nose and tail and it either held or released wires run thru the fuse. Want contact instant bang hold both wires & let separation distance prop spin arms both and if a bit after it buries go with tail only. Some reason to use jettison area off coast release both wires ( little electric switch hook ) and simply sinks. NEVER land with them bombs at all possible. Better just leave it all and watch it hit water 1st a good distance away if too banged up to trust a landing. Have someone do a check all stores are gone than can belly in. Live crew can always fly another plane and reason we ran out of B-57s by '70. Nastiest tho was time delays you want to bury self and go off much later. Had a vial of acetone to slowly eat a plastic plug at a steady rate after armed. Always used a close up bomb nose check so if it smelled like banana oil had a serious need to get it off to a far safe area to dearm. Made for itchy anus until you got them all safely away. Sometimes the switchology got it all wrong and a dud for them to use against us later. Times bomb loader screwed up as well. I once found an arm wire did NOT run thru the nose fusing prop. Would spin arm 1st time bomb door opened so first good jar might just go BOOM! all she wrote. Is a young man's game so there's a great need to grow old in your own time. 8
