From the early 1950s until 1992, the U.S. Army deployed thousands
of nuclear warheads throughout Europe as a deterrent to Soviet
ambitions. The end of the Cold War saw the decommissioning of much
of the U.S. nuclear arsenal and the phasing out of support
personnel. This memoir by one of the Army's last ""glow worms""
chronicles his career as a nuclear weapons specialist from
17-year-old recruit to participant in Operation Silent Echo,
codename for the removal of all tactical warheads throughout Asia
and Europe.
