According to nuclear safety expert Bruce G. Blair, the US Air Force’s Strategic Air Command worried that in times of need the codes for the Minuteman ICBM force would not be available, so it decided to set the codes to 00000000 in all missile launch control centers. Blair said the missile launch checklists included an item confirming this combination until 1977.
As if. I bet the code is actually 0–0–0, so it can be entered as quickly as possible.
It’s just a simple “x”. For obvious reasons
X gon give it to ya
Press any key to launch nuclear warheads…
I would think it would be 1-2-3-4, you know, like the combination an idiot would put on his luggage.
Akshyually, that would have been 00000000.
