Using declassified government material James C. Oskins and Michael
H. Maggelet have written the most comprehensive and detailed study
of the thirty six known U.S. nuclear weapons accidents, known as
"Broken Arrows." The authors have poured through government
documents, aircraft accident reports, nuclear weapon incident and
accident reports, and first hand accounts to shed light on the
Department of Defense's vague summaries of nuclear weapons
accidents. Their research dispels myths surrounding the Tybee and
Goldsboro accidents, and provides great insight into the human
element and the condition of individual weapons and AEC or DOD
recovery operations regarding nearly every Broken Arrow. The
underlying cause of such accidents, be it human error or equipment
malfunction, is clearly shown in formerly secret reports and
photographs.
