FEDEX was a primary part of the United States Nuclear strategy

Why the US Had Only One Wrench for Three Nuclear Bases | KTIC Radio

Quote:
A prime example of the problems Hagel cited Friday was a toolkit that included a wrench needed to install a nuclear warhead atop an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). Only one of the toolkits remained available, so the three bases that maintain the fleet of 450 Minuteman ICBM?s would share the toolkit. How? Hagel said they would use FedEx to ship it to the base that needed it at the time.

?They were creative and innovative, and they made it work,? said Hagel. ?But that?s not the way to do it. We now have a wrench for each location. We?re going to have two wrenches for each location, soon.?

WTF???

"Primary part" might be a bit overstatement as they don't start installing warheads when enemy's missiles are on the way.

"Hey Fedex, enemy's missiles are here in ten minutes and we have a bit hurry regarding this retaliation strike. Could you pick up one wrench from nearby place and bring it over here? Do you have some offers going on? We might have a coupon, my staff is currently searching for it."

I meant to use "integral part" but my vocabulary went away while I was typing it.

Don't count on the fact they wouldn't be doing it when needed. Back when I was in the Navy, stationed in Cape Hatteras there was a hurricane. We had about a week or so warning as it slowly came up the coast. Guy in charge of getting everything ready sends people up the road (6 hour round trip) to get supplies about 4 hours before it was due to hit.

Military Intelligence is an oxymoron more often than they like to admit.
