Being a former Strategic Air Command veteran, and a huge admirer of General Curtis LeMay. I love this comment on Wikipedia ..... General LeMay was instrumental in SACs acquisition of a large fleet of new strategic bombers, establishment of a vast aerial refueling system, the formation of many new units and bases, development of a strategic ballistic missile force, and establishment of a strict command and control system with an unprecedented readiness capability. All of this was protected by a greatly enhanced and modernized security force, the Strategic Air Command Elite Guard. LeMay insisted on rigorous training and very high standards of performance for all SAC personnel, be they officers, enlisted men, aircrews, mechanics, or administrative staff, and reportedly commented, I have neither the time nor the inclination to differentiate between the incompetent and the merely unfortunate.
