IV. STATEMENT<br />

lU)'name My job ritle is 2W231. I used 10 work dir€ctl] in tbe High Bay in the Il\{F as a team<br />

member<br />

January 5,2007. At this point, I was removed from the bay and placed in the Analysis<br />

section <strong>of</strong> the<br />

section ivas 10 cios€ oll the work orders scheduled for the bay hased on the inpuls I<br />

received iron]<br />

rhe cnd <strong>of</strong> thc wcek. I would also make sure that the information in IMDS would<br />

match the build-up sheets y creared (rhe missiles, ejecloracks, and imPulse carlridges were installed correctll).<br />

! belie!e it was around late Februar.v ro tbe middle <strong>of</strong> March when I would start attending lhe Scheduling Meeling every<br />

Wednesday, This meeling is \.r'hereach shop would meet with Plans and Scheduljng (P& S) to make sute their schedule was<br />

c!rrect with our schedule. We would make necessary changes at this lime. Sometimes, we would make changes after the meeting.<br />

<strong>The</strong> sljde show that P & S u'ould show is a documenthat I would never €dit. Analysis, along rrith other shops, would access an<br />

Exc€l documenlhat we would pul our weekl-v maintenanca onto for P & S lo see,<br />

Between the beginning <strong>of</strong> July and the middle <strong>of</strong> Jul<br />

asked me to stand in his place for the High Bay at the<br />

meeling held on Wcdnesday <strong>of</strong> every we€k, Ii I didn'<br />

I would attend for him. I'm not really<br />

sure u'ho would arleDd meetings when I was unavailable. I was able to attend the meeting on Auglsl 15, 2007 which was Lo talk<br />

about the maintenance for the following $'eek, I don\ recollecl whal was said abo,rL G2203 aod GZ37 7 bet\r'een<br />

ffiGor do I recoJlect what was said b;to'een@and I.<br />

According to the P & S document, G2203 ard GZ3l7 were schcduled {ot UPLOAD PACKAGE. ll was on our Ercel<br />

for our<br />

read TAC FERRY PREP<br />

Someonelse in Analysis would put the packages for the week oDlo the Excel document before we altend :he meeting for<br />

the ,,veek. Il they werent on the document afler th9 mgeling, I would make the necessary changes lo th€ documenl if someonelse<br />

hadn't already done so.<br />

@@would come to me and tell me if there were changes to the schedule after I would atlend the meeling (if the High<br />

Bay changed lheir mind), <strong>The</strong>re was a time when she came to me 10 tell me thal there werc changes to the schedule and whal was<br />

listed needed 10 be changed. I'm no1 sure if this was even during the week <strong>of</strong> the meeting where G2203 ar,d CZ37'l were discussed<br />

or ifit was even during the week thal the maintenance was being done on GZ2O3 and GZ3'7'7.<br />

At the end <strong>of</strong> each week, P & S would have the nexl \r'eek's maiotenarce scheduled out, I would pull up the Equipment lD<br />

(pylon or Jauncher numtter) and pdnt out the scr€en showing whal work orders eacb piece <strong>of</strong> equipment had against it. <strong>The</strong>n, I would<br />

p nt out each individual ,lvork order and bave them ready for the High Bay to takc to the bay for the maintenance coming in tha!<br />

coming wcek, I would call the ba)'on Mondays and they would come get rhose worl ordcls. Al least"r'ice a da], I would call out to<br />

the bay and ask @,r hat all had been complied with for [hc week's maintenance. She rvou]d tell me and I u'ould take the JCN<br />

for each work order and close it oul. Once the JCN was clos€d out, I would cross it <strong>of</strong>l <strong>of</strong> my Equipment ID print oul so lhat I knew<br />

il was complied with, At the end <strong>of</strong> the week, I would go back and make sure thal the week's maintenance *'as shou"ing complicd<br />

wilh in IMDS. Afr€r thal I would lhrow my sheer inlo rhe recycling bin in lhg <strong>of</strong>fice. Remember,I would go b)'our Excel docudent<br />

and not the slide sho\\'tbar P & S had crealeo.<br />

I'm Dot sure if there was a miscommunication between l-11f]5ftjfE-l and I for this to become UPLOAD PACKAGE instead<br />

<strong>of</strong> TAC FERRY PREP. I don't know ho\' GZI03 and GZ377r-dre-i-put onto our Excel document. If so, lvork orders would have<br />

been given ro the bay. h should have been and maybe it didn't savc coirectly. This also could have been the time u'hen@<br />

came in and told me nor to schedule rhem because they werent going to have maintenance done until a differentilne. Ifthat is lhe<br />

case, then I would hsve deleted them <strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> the Excel document and told P & S to d€lete the u/ork orders againsl them.<br />

When we would close out work orders in IMDS, we would not always use the<br />

person who did the actual mainlenance. Not everyone in the bay has an IMDS user lD.<br />

We were currently trying to get everyone a user lD. As long as we didn't cross lime<br />

frames when using someone's user lD, it was okay to use thejr lD for any numerous<br />

amount <strong>of</strong> work orders. For example, if the work order said it was complied wlth<br />

(corrected by or inspected by) HICEJA, that doesn't necessarily mean that she is the<br />

one that did the work. This was also true <strong>of</strong> the other IMDS user lDs that we were able<br />

. to use.<br />

.O.ornthe IMF Shecalledlo find out when handljng uas coming to get pyions from herbay. I told her when we get T<br />

FERRY'S 02377 and G2203 oui <strong>of</strong>the structure. She didn't recall GZ2O3 being on the TAC FERRY sch€dule at that time. I told<br />

het rhar I would call ber back shorrly. After t hllng up the phone I went to the compuler to check the TAC FERRY schedule. When<br />

I pulled up the schedule on rhe MUNS: S drive, under plans and scheduling I saw that TAC FERRY G2418 was suPPosed to be goin8<br />

to the flight line notTAC FERRY G2203. I gol on rhe radio to my team al structure 1854 and ask for a I-Al\rD line, $'hcn I<br />

FERRY G2203<br />

and G2418 he s;id he had no idea whar I was talking about, he turned the phone over lo l----(!XgL.499-ltold me thal I was<br />

looking at the wrong schedule on the S: drive, thar it was in fact TAC FERRY G2203 that was slPposed to be going to the flighrlire.<br />

He also told me thar il was written on the white board in the team chief <strong>of</strong>fice. I lhen looked at the white board and lhe othel<br />

schedule on the S: drive. <strong>The</strong> white board and the S: drive schedule married up, I wa^s reassured thal TAC FERRY G2203 q'as ihe<br />

righl TAC FERRY pacliage according to all lhe documents I had to look al. <strong>The</strong> schedule on the S: dlive changcs very <strong>of</strong>ien, which<br />

is no1 our oI rhe ordinary. Tbe white board in the NCOIC's <strong>of</strong>fice said TAC FERRY C2203. I called lg)qgFnd told her<br />

everything was fioe and we would be there shortly io pick up he! ptlon, She said great and eYetything conti$ued as notmal. On 30<br />

Aug 07 at aboul 2330 hours I received an lnusual recall. I \a'as instrucr€d to report lo work, nol to ask any question jusl report to<br />

handling. Between rhe hour <strong>of</strong> 2400 and 0200 I was told by LEXgl4ggllhat one <strong>of</strong> the TAC FERRY'S thal we sent out was nol a<br />

TAC FERRY al all, il u,as in fact a WR. We w€re instructed to perform a Slockpil€ Emergency Verification(SEV). During<br />

preparations for rhe SEV, which includes getting sbotguns and ammunition from the IMF. I lalked with I (bx€l fCC I<br />

about the event. we were all wonderiog how lhis could happen. I rold@@llllwhich TAC FERRY it was and she said, thal was<br />

the one that wasn't on thc schedule and I agvsgd rvith her.<br />

we were no1 all<br />

same lime but someLimc during the<br />

the Miss'ile Safety Status checks had been done,<br />

the<br />

S-tructure $t\en rhey anived. Everyone thar kneq what happened in the handling section. f----TI6)-AdC-land I were equally<br />

disrraughL over the evenr. We didnt know what to say to ;ach other but howcould lhis iiiiEil-iErili6iiilG-how this hapPen<br />

however I u'as no1 in the involved the planning stage <strong>of</strong> this event, nor was I in the stucture al lhe time <strong>of</strong> the e\lenl. <strong>The</strong>te are many<br />

checks and balanccs for this operarion rhat v,'ere not checked, I have heard if called the perfect storm as all lhe check u'ere missed<br />

bl rnany differenr personnel involved in the scheduling and execution <strong>of</strong> the operation. If one fail safe had wotked the storm would<br />

noi have happened. I have only beea in the sbrage and handling sectiol silce Apr 07. When I arrived al handling the atmospherc<br />

was lense. 11 q.as lense becaus3 none <strong>of</strong>lhe handling personnel respected lh<br />

<strong>The</strong> NCOIC al$'avs looked for<br />

negalive things from rhe shop. He expected them !o mess up every oay and rehll!?ifiliaaiiGE-Tfi61or any good things the shop<br />

did, Handling usaually worked rhrough lunch, breaks and worked a l0 to 12 hour day, which directly reflects ho$' a shop chief takes<br />

care <strong>of</strong> his pcople. Handling maintenance practices although safe, secure, and reliable was a little bit questionable at dmes. Thc<br />

NCOIC did not mentor his first line supervisor's on their dudes while at or in th€ struclure. I took the challange on, I ensured that<br />

maintenance practices were up held and tbe shop used rechnical manauls for every operarion. I also praised them for jobs well<br />

done. <strong>The</strong> shop seem ed receptive <strong>of</strong> me but it only made their disrespect for tlre NCOIC worse. About three u'eek ago the NCOIC<br />

<strong>of</strong> weapons handling was removed and is now the ANCOIC <strong>of</strong> weapons suppor-ta{11i1$<br />

1[Xet nc-]s the new ruCblC and seems ta care a lot about his people. <strong>The</strong> shop will *<br />

TE6-re a very productive shop in the future. During TAC FERRY movemenls there<br />

was only a couple <strong>of</strong> times that supervision was out in the weeds looking to see it<br />

everythrng was going well. I do not recall QA being at any <strong>of</strong> the TAC FERRY<br />

mouerents. Th; ops tempo for SWM flight is overwhelming at time especially for the<br />

younger, less expeiience Airmen. lt jS not unusual for multiple operations lo be going<br />

on atine same time, <strong>The</strong> handling section is a mixture <strong>of</strong> AFSC's with 2W2X1 and<br />

2MOX1 working together. Although all personnel are training and certified, the AFSC's<br />

are different and have different maintenance practices. lt is a challenge to ensure thal<br />

tech data and maintenance practices are followed to the letter <strong>of</strong> the law. 2W2's have<br />

to do a step and check it <strong>of</strong>f in the To and 2Mo's can have the book with them and<br />

open, but do not have to follow every procedure slep by step. All <strong>of</strong>the movement<br />

in/oui <strong>of</strong> the WSA are the responsibility <strong>of</strong> handling, Handling also takes care <strong>of</strong> all the<br />

support for structure alarms. we support a total <strong>of</strong> 6 difierent shops everyday. This is<br />

a strain on the young Airmen who do not get a lunch, breaks, or gym time on a regular<br />

basis. When this wal brought up tfrel-trtt-6FlrcClshe said every shop is hurting for<br />

oersonnel, however did not think abouthe handling sectionot working a normal work<br />

shift ( B hours with lunch) and being over tasked with support <strong>of</strong> 6 different shops.<br />

Nothing has been done even after numerous conversalions with supervision on the<br />

probleis. This is not an excuse for what happened, however lthink it could have been<br />

prevented if supervision would have looked at solutions to problems when presented to<br />

ihem. <strong>The</strong>re is currently a communication break down. Many <strong>of</strong> the NCOICS and<br />

ANCOICs do not contactf tottelrcc lon issues because she always points us to<br />

other SWM flight supervision for assistance. lt is confuslng at times who is running the<br />

WSA.<br />

IV. STATEMENT<br />

Iam<br />

Minor AFB. My dulies include<br />

To accomplish this $'e utilize the Defense<br />

Inregrarion And Managemenr OfNuclear Data Sysrem lDIAMONDS). DIAMONDS is a Defense Threat Reducriot Agency<br />

(DTRA) sysrem which allo\r's rracking <strong>of</strong>nuclear weapons and components DoD wide. <strong>The</strong> process for tracking a $arhead through<br />

DIAMONDS consists oI t*'o main stases: tirsr rhe maintenance data is entered into a Status Change Reporl(SCR) by the<br />

technicians $'ho pedorm the maintcnance, then tbe data is verified by the accouIltabilily section. <strong>The</strong> mainlenance tealn musl<br />

utilize two personnel to enter DIAMOI\DS dara. <strong>The</strong> firsl to enter the data, the secoDd lo verify. Oncethisis accomplished lhe<br />

data is submirred elecronically r0 lhe Nuclear Ordinance Commodily ManagemeDi (NOCM) seclion. NOCM will vedfy rhe<br />

rransacrion data againsi rhe DIAMONDS databas€, and againsthe Location Ioventory Listing (LIl,). <strong>The</strong> LIL lists aU the weaPons<br />

and Limited Life Components (LLC) by serial number. lfrhe data submitted by the Inaintenance section is concurrent with the LIL<br />

and the DTAMONDS darabase, then the NOCM secrion will approve the SCR. <strong>The</strong> SCR data will then be compiled automatically bt<br />

DIAMONDS inlo a Weapons Sratus Rep<strong>of</strong>l (WSR). 1'he WSR is the folm utilized lo inform DTRA <strong>of</strong> wbat mainlenance has<br />

occurred. IIthe SCR subnilted for approval trom the maintenance section to NOCM conlains erroneous data, it wilt be rejectcd<br />

by NOCM and electronically returned to lhe maintenance section.<br />

In the case <strong>of</strong> a Tactical Ferry operatioD, the only in!emction betweeD the NOCM section and the maintenance section would be<br />

during the removal <strong>of</strong> warheads, This would be verified as previously stated, and the warhead status would change from associaled<br />

to the missile to being unassociated, at which point the missile and launcher will ccase to be tracked by DIAMONDS, and onl) lhe<br />

warhead starus is reportable per llN-l00-3150. <strong>The</strong>refore a missile and launcher, loaded with a TYPE 3 trainer or a Tactical Ferry<br />

Payload intended fo! lransport is not fiacked by NOCM as it does no1 co ain reporrable malerials. <strong>The</strong>te has $ot beetl a Practice in<br />

place to consult NOCM to confirm a pylon being to\r'ed does or does not contain Iluclcat matetial.<br />

On Thursday ihe 30rh <strong>of</strong> August I was recalled al approximately 2200 hours and inslructed 10 report to the Command Post (CP).<br />

When I arrived I was informed <strong>of</strong> the potential situation involvingpylor GZ-203 loaded with 6 Advanced Cruise Missiles<br />

containing W80 warheads being flown ro Barksdalc AFB. As the situation was being conlirmed I recommended to my chain <strong>of</strong><br />

command that we perform a Srockpile Emergency Verificalion (SEV) and that I proceed to the NOCM <strong>of</strong>fice and verify the data fot<br />

pylon GZ-203. I went to th e Inregrated Mainlenance Facility (lMF) and retrieved the build-up sheet lot pyla\ GZ-203 to conlirm<br />

irs suspected payload. I lhen check€d the data in DIAMONDS which was consistent with lhe build-up shee! confi.ming that<br />

GZ-203 was loaded wirh six W80 warheads. Upon this confirmation I contactedEEE] at CP via STE III and informed<br />

him <strong>of</strong> my dala. After relaying the information, I began checking references for further instruclions, and preparing for a SEV.<br />

Prior to rhis incident I had no personat knowledge <strong>of</strong> GZ-203 or any intended changes to its status. <strong>The</strong> records maintained by the<br />

NOCM section, as well as !he build-up book, correctly idcntified this package as one containing W80 warheads. <strong>The</strong> NOCM<br />

secrion is nol. involved iD the confirmation <strong>of</strong>Tactical Ferry packages prior to shipmcnt due to their lack <strong>of</strong> 11n'-100-3150<br />

reportable maLerial. We were not conlacleo prior ro the rngg4qnt <strong>of</strong> GZ-203 !o confirm thal il did not conlain reportablq<br />

weekly schedule is as follows: 0800 - receive updated status <strong>of</strong>the MUNS events schedulcd for that day. This includes reviewing<br />

informarion on MK- l2A RS/RV and Reentry Sys Test Set status, daily FRA.G for Conventional, SWM High Bay fiame (in use)<br />

status, Armament Flt,s scheduled u,ork, Vehicle Status, and Pylon & CSRL status <strong>of</strong>tlose not currently loaded or in use. I attend<br />

an 0830 Aircrafl Sratus meering ar the MXG daily, and until a f.r *""ks aftetflEfiEiiCdl3pived, only briefed the status <strong>of</strong>thc<br />

RS/RV work we provided to ttre 9l SW. Her arival allowed MLNS to show wTfirifTElTEas important to the MXG CC, providing<br />

status <strong>of</strong> tle FRAG, Daily IMF Mx, Tac Ferry readiness (6 <strong>of</strong> I ready for shipment, 8 <strong>of</strong> 8 ready for shipment, etc), RS/RV stalus,<br />

and vehicle status. That change was shortlived, and we were asked to show status in a traffic light representation, showing only<br />

macro-level detail (FRAG- (green), Ready to Supporthe following week scheduled flfng/training). Ialsoatrenda 1400 Aircraft<br />

Status mecting that is chaired by the 5 BW CC. Th ere, 5 MUNS provides the same input (to inc lude real-time updates) that $€<br />

pro\.ided ar th;0830 MXG meering. On Wednesdays, I adeDd the 5 MUNS Staff Meeting followed by the Pre-21-165 meeting at<br />

scbedule. ihe schedule that I see arc only the PowerPoint slides- the on)y schedule thatl krew <strong>of</strong>. Ijust found out today that<br />

what I considered the MUNS schedule is in-fact combined with a different set <strong>of</strong> information at 5 MOS that may provide different<br />

information than what I'm seeing at dre MUr\S Scheduling meeting. When I entered the position, I aftended the meetings with the<br />

other scheduling data that could have b€en provided to me<br />

and I split up our work inlo pieces we could €ach<br />

d and work ordeTs cr<br />

Once the TFP/Type 3 payloads have been associated to the ACM Package<br />

the package is downloaded from the frame and a post download is performed. Once<br />

the team chief is done with the post download, a 7 level must do an inspeclion on the<br />

package to ensur everything has been c/w, At this time, I walk around with either a<br />

team chief or team member and starthe build up sheet. This is a document that allows<br />

us to see what is associated to a package down to the position on the pylon.<br />

Missiles/racks/payloads/ejector carts are listed by serial number and when they are<br />

DIFM. Once I have all the information needed to complete the build up I enter the<br />

inforrnation into the Build Up Program. When the information is complete, a copy is<br />

printed and a MSgt on shift has to verify the package againsthe build up. Whi/e a<br />

MSgt, along with either a team chief or bay chief, verifies the package (thrs includes<br />

looking up into the payload bay through the view ports in the payload bay door to verify<br />

either a "nuclear" serial number or an "inert" marking or a white TFP) against the build<br />

up I would have a team chief or team member place "TFP PACKAGE'or "TAC FERRY<br />

PACKAGE" signs on both right and left sides <strong>of</strong> the pylon next to the pylon number and<br />

one sign on the front <strong>of</strong> the pylon if it were a TFP Package. To the best <strong>of</strong> my<br />

knowledge the only time a package is marked with the TFP Package/TAC Ferry<br />

Package signs is v,/hen it is in the high bay and the build up has been verified. At no<br />

time would a ba n access a<br />

wouro open oor ano a<br />

the Tow Team access. Once inside the area (high bay) the Tow Team would either ask<br />

if the Weapons Safe Status Checks have been complied with during the download/post<br />

download operations, making it a continuous operation. lf the tow team receives verbal<br />

confumation from the high bay Bay Chief, Team Chief or certified Team Member that<br />

the Weapons Safe Status Checks have been complied with, they would, to the best <strong>of</strong><br />

my knowledge, check <strong>of</strong>f the steps in their T.O /checklist as PCW. lf the Tow Team<br />

does not verbally check to ensure the Weapon Safe Status Checks have been cornplied<br />

witlr, it is their responsibility to comply with the checks during their Prep for Tow<br />

procedures.<br />

was a class the crews had to altend to p-anicipate in this eu.nt, and she info,m"d me lhere was not, howeve! there was a binder in<br />

OGV rhal had some informarion in it ishouid look at prior to the ftighl and thar she had done one <strong>of</strong>lhese flights before On the<br />

o"v,"ni a po*r.poin, pr.ra-nt.tion mostly fuel informarionthat had been created by the 5 oss' Afler approximately 3<br />

"ont.ining<br />

hours <strong>of</strong>mission planning, I pulled logelher ir1' {erry crew as {ell as the additional 3 personnel who were flyingiome with us from<br />

Minor into our crew room and we accJmplished a ciew bricf for the retum sortie. Focusjng on the mission <strong>of</strong>-safely relutning lhe<br />

weapons home and then figuring out whowould accomplish what on the sortie and for Prenight agHlISLl90 the<br />

pii"i"lpii"ir"f t"t"undffi, e^rr" crewmember would do th€ EW not flying checklist' andl-'i6xe-ilF-lvould do the <strong>of</strong>fense<br />

and wea'pons preflights).Ei-lowing the crew brief for the rsturn rrip, the three crewmembcrs <strong>of</strong> my crew then did another quick<br />

crew uriiftoirhe Tuesday sorlic ensuring any additional items for our individual crew were briefed'<br />

Thc Tuesday show was standard, \1,e got to the aircraft, the crew chicfs got into thc bus and I did rny Prebrief with them then I<br />

ch"cLeO ttrr'forrs ,"ading them aloud'Co the crew. Foilowing, we gor out <strong>of</strong>thebus and unloaded our gear, I did thepilol and<br />

-pttor *"lk urounO, the ;pilot did the EW not flying checkiisth; RN did the <strong>of</strong>iense waik atound and weapon pteflight, the pins<br />

foi the weapons were already pulled when we arrived af the airctaft. Following the walk around, ground ops were standatd until wc<br />

staned to h'ave some hydrauiii mx issues upstairs while the RN was ttying to gel the MIU5 to operate properly. Eventually the<br />

ttyaraulic matfunction was fixed, however ihe Mlus were still not operating propelly, I elect€d to slalt €ngines when the sp€cialjsl<br />

said he thou ght the problcm may be an electrica I issue so I could geiuson airc;raft power and that may solve.the problem After we<br />

had rhe 4 geierarori online, rhe RN and rhe specialist were still unable to fix lhe problcm, they tried to swilch.out AlUs. and<br />

eventually-I decided ro shul down rhe enginei ard let the spccialisls try to solve the problem, As we gol out <strong>of</strong> the aircraft the<br />

ipeciatisirotA me t e needed another 30 riin to work one more thing. then he would be out <strong>of</strong> ideas and we would have 1() download<br />

ti" o=rponr- Aboul l0minlater, a mainrainer noticed a circuit br;aker in lhe forward wheel rvell was pulled and collared and it<br />

was supposed to be in, <strong>The</strong> maintainer Pusbed the CB in and iben we got back into lhe aircraft and Started engines and Lhe weapons<br />

decision po'int ro ensure the runway a! mi'rot was stil] predicted to bc dry since we wete not supposed 10 land On a wet runway if we<br />

could heip it. During the penetration ar minot, the SOF advised us they believed the barksdale maintainers hsd left a laptop in oul<br />

wheel \r,eil, we descJnded in order to accomplish a check <strong>of</strong> the wheel well, and found the laptop jusl as-the SOF had siated in the<br />

wheel well. <strong>The</strong> RN recovered the laptop, and then rhe coprlol landed al Minol uneveDtfull)' and we taxied to park in the APA. we<br />

did not apply external power to rhe ai;cr;ft, and then we pirformed our postflight walk arounds and went to maintenance debrief<br />

'Ihe show for rhe Thursday flight was at around 0.545, the crerv received a weather brief, checked<br />

NOTAI4S, catled back to the 96 BS to ensure lhere were no new FClFs, and did a quick leattack<br />

as far as the sortie, and ensured no one was DNIF and everl'one had crew lest, then filed a flight<br />

plan and ensure a copy <strong>of</strong> flight orders were on file. Following that, eacb crewmembel went and<br />

gol our life support equipment, and the RN went to lhe command post to get our secrets and<br />

"ntUcr. -<br />

we met at bus time, anrJ the bus arrived about 8 min late' then we headed to the flight<br />

kitchen and got our food and our water jug filled with water. Following that we arlived at the<br />

aircraft 61-0-010 parked on Stub 29 the same jet we had brought to Minot 2 da.vs prior'<br />

<strong>The</strong> crew chiefs once again climbed aboarci the bus and I as the AC briefed them on the checklist<br />

procedures and emergency procedures in the event we encountered a problem' I also verbally_<br />

Lriefed the forms to rhe crew noting the 12 uploaded AGM-129s and the uploaded pylons. I do<br />

not at this time recall if a preflight Lad been written up by any weapons/munitions personnel. As<br />

we completed that step, we unloaded the bus and I began the pilot and copilot exterior<br />

inspections as rhe copilot performed the FIW not flying checklist and the RN perforrned tbe<br />

*.upon, preflight and <strong>of</strong>fense checklist as our duties dictate: the weapon pins were pulled prior<br />

to cie* airi.'alir the aircrafl. When I was complete wilh my walk around, I climbed up the<br />

hatch and started my interior inspection, wheo the copilot and RN informed me their gloves were<br />

missing from the aiicraft anrl i called life support to try and get him and the RN a new set <strong>of</strong><br />

glor,"sl As the copilot and I were accomplishing our interior inspection the RN came upstairs<br />

ind showed us the pins for the weapons and we counted to ensule all 14 were there, a<br />

requirement for all crewmembers on the aircraft. Engine start was delayed while we waited on<br />

gloves for the 2 creu,members, however there rvere no maintenance delays. As we prepared for<br />

t-axi, I called the oG firough lhe soF lo ensure we wele clear to taxi, and upon clearance, u'e<br />

periormrd a standard taxi ind take<strong>of</strong>f. <strong>The</strong> route <strong>of</strong>flight was flown as depicted in the OGV<br />

Lind.r. I flew the penetration and approach to Barksdale uneventfully, and we ianded and taxred<br />

to Dark.<br />

IV STATEMENT<br />

<strong>The</strong> following slatement oullines my involvement vith the Tactical Ferrl' Program a1 \4itor AFB io the besr <strong>of</strong> m)' recoliection.<br />

\yhen the racrical ferry missiie moven)ent tasking came douin from ACC I o3, 16dl6ii6i76dl As i rccall. HQ ACC asked \{inol ro<br />

ld the eui.lance for rhis program (Tac Ferry Acadernics, Pre-Bke<strong>of</strong>f Briefing. and ORlI briefing) [<br />

)(6)ACg J5 OSS/A5\) had rhe lead on rhis tasker for the 5 OG As lrecall,l (bxo)Acc ltras ro<br />

ii3'i!f,i6G1o-. make recommended changes) to our product. We had several meetings wirh bomb squadron, OSS, and OG senior<br />

leadership that addressed our proposal for the executjon <strong>of</strong>this program. During !hese meetings we scrubbed our early versions <strong>of</strong><br />

rhe academics, PTOB, and OR-V products, looking for potential problems and other issues invohiog the opeiational piece oi<br />

rnoving these weapons. Some <strong>of</strong>the specific conversations I recall involved the tbllowing:<br />

l) Weather concems at Barksdale: During the sutnmer months, rhunderstorms occur on a regular basis in the early afrernoon I e<br />

planned.to land at Barksdaie during the morning hours to rrl/ to avoid the possibility <strong>of</strong>holding for wearher and'/or ianding on a wet<br />

runway. <strong>The</strong> OGICC's would discuss local airfield conditions and forecast wealher on the day <strong>of</strong> the flight, priorto launch and at<br />

the ferry cre\^r's en route decision point.<br />

2) Instructor involvement/Crew make-up: We decided our tac ferry crews would have an instructor pilor and inst/uctor radar<br />

navlgator on board to mirigate risk Ali sorties would consist <strong>of</strong>at least i iP and I pjlot or co-pilot, I IR and I radar navrgator or<br />

navigator. An instructor electronic warfare <strong>of</strong>ficer fl ew on the first N4inot Tac Ferry. but after that sortie \4'e didn't fly with EW's<br />

on these missions. On some Tac ferry sonies, additional crew members, some unqualified, fle"! on the sottie but not in prjmar)<br />

seal positions Exlra crew membels were added to rhese sorties to accomplish WST training and/or emergenct procedure sims<br />

while at Ba.ksdale due to the fact that our l\iST simulator was inoperative for te-hosi (Apr-Oct 07)<br />

3) Simulators for pilots: \\/e knew we'd be landing outside our "nonnal" landilg wr'ndou (above 290K) during these missions. We<br />

thought ir woujd be prudent lo have our pilor: fly a Tac Ferry mission pr<strong>of</strong>ile for familiarization in the WST ThisWSTwas)edby<br />

fiffidlrs oss)A5N) and includerJ the Iolloning:<br />

- Llepadure lorm \4rnol wrtn a lac Ierry loao<br />

- Numerous approaohes at Barksdale at estimaled landing gross weight (approx 3?5K)<br />

- Wet and dry RCR landings with'and without the drag chute<br />

- On my pr<strong>of</strong>iJe we flew a oouple low vis approaches at Barksdale as well<br />

I,ve attached a copy <strong>of</strong> an email outlining rhe Tac Ferry initial cadre that rve used as an aid to schedule our IP's for Tac Fery s<strong>of</strong>iies<br />

All pilots on thi;document completed the Tac Ferry \1rST pr<strong>of</strong>ile and to date, all Tac Ferry sonjes have been flown by instrucror<br />

pilots who completed $is WSl. Wesaw little advantage in having non-pilot cre* m€mbers paiticipate inthe WST pr<strong>of</strong>ile.<br />

4) Training,/Diven optjons: <strong>The</strong>se sorties were planned for C\{R crews. No taining \,,rould be accomplished \^'e discussed en<br />

route decision points, holding tjmes, and BNGO fuel weights to potential diven options. As I recall, the 5 OG/CC engaged with<br />

his counlerparts at the primary and secondary diven bases and discussed parking. suppon and security concerns for these missions<br />

All creurlemberselected for Taclical Ferry sorties lvere combat missiOn ready and were current<br />

and qualified for tlre missjons, we used the Lefter <strong>of</strong> x product to confirn CMR-N for all<br />

primarl' crewmembers.<br />

our first Tactical Ferry sorties on?4126 April were flown witb 4 weapons <strong>of</strong>ficers and an<br />

instructor electronic rvarfare <strong>of</strong>ficer. We purposel'ully planned this first mission to be flou'n by a<br />

highly experienced crew. Subsequent sotties were flown u'ith a1 leasl one itrstruclor pilot and<br />

one instruclor radar navigator on board.<br />

Tactical Ferry crews began their mission plaruring day at the 5 oSS Varrlt with academics and<br />

the pTOB. iopies <strong>of</strong>thise briefings have been provided to the CDI team. <strong>The</strong>se briefings<br />

rvould last l-2 ilours. depending on the questions that aircrew members would have' [n my<br />

opinion, the briefings *ir. uery complete and the products that the OSS mission planners<br />

provided were Yery accurale.<br />

l'm very proud <strong>of</strong>our squadron flight scheduling process 23d Bomb Squadron schedulers build<br />

the weei js schedule, revierv fl,ving cunencies, and then v€l though the DOS Flight Commander<br />

and Schedrrling ADO. <strong>The</strong> scheduler then sits dorvn with me and we review lhe schedule<br />

together, on each line <strong>of</strong>our flight schedule we list "show-stopping" currencies for our crew<br />

mimbers. I re'iew the non-cwrent crew membels to ensure that they are flying with an<br />

'l'aclical<br />

instruclor. For HHD and FLAG sorties (we considered Ferry missions in the HHQ<br />

category), I ensured that all primary crew members were CMR via the Squadron Letter <strong>of</strong> X<br />

p.oar"i. I discuss any coneclions rvith the build scheduler so tbat he understands the reasoning<br />

tehind my red-rnk changes. T'he schedule is then presenled (o the squadron commander for. his<br />

revierv prior to our group-level pre-165 meeting. <strong>The</strong> wing commander reviews and signs the<br />

schedule at the wing - I65 meeting<br />

I'm also very confident in our squadron'step plocess. SAR\4 persorurel build step packages a1<br />

though our iu.r"n.y database. <strong>The</strong>se products are included in the mission packages presenled 10<br />

Flight orders are signed by a member <strong>of</strong> the 1'op 3 u'hen all GorNo-Go procedures are satisfled<br />

just prior to the crew slepping to the aircraft. 1-op 3 are present during the Step briefing to have<br />

"eyes-on" the stepping crews. Bottom line: ln my opinion, *'e have a very solid scheduling and<br />

step process and squadron and group Ieaders appll' the appropriate leYel <strong>of</strong> extra attention to our<br />

HHD and FLAG sorties, to include Tac Feny.<br />

I flew a tactical fery sortie 1o Barksdale on 28 Aug /30 Aug 2007, I received a thorough Tac<br />

Ferry academics briel foJlowed b1'a PTOB. We had ample time to ask questions and discuss<br />

weather diYert and contingency options. Of note, rve did discusstepping a few minutes earlier<br />

to allow additional time for the <strong>of</strong>fense team to accomplish our weapons pre-flight. Copies <strong>of</strong><br />

botlr briefings have been giYen to the CDI team. <strong>The</strong> mission plaruring packages \\'ere ver)'<br />

complcte. Follou'ing the PTOB, my crew broke out the package for further study and revieu"<br />

We accomplished our crew briefing and entered crew resl on time.<br />

On 28 Aug we showed on time and accomplished our Step procedures as outlined above We<br />

stepped to the aircraft, briefed the forms and thc crew chiefs. I specifically remember briefing l2<br />

eiM loaded in post-maintenance status. @<br />

accomplished a pre-flight on all ra'eapons. During my vralk-around I saw them with the ladder<br />

on br:lh sides <strong>of</strong> the aircraft. We accounted for all weapons pins and-rtiiiiG-ponfirmed that<br />

the \\,eapons pre-flight had been accomplished. With erception <strong>of</strong> a ?ii6EFan-d r|ith the proper<br />

fueI loading for borh sorties, to and from Barksdale, bolh uere uneventful. I discussed the fuel<br />

loadilg issue with an AMXS <strong>of</strong>ficer on the spol at N4inot, prior to my walk around and discussed<br />

it rvith "Gotd 9" ( I I BS Flight S upen,isor) at Barksdale. On both occasions I made reference to<br />

a copy <strong>of</strong>our 'l ac Ferry Acade;lics Briefing to show them the apPropriale Tac Ferry fuel load<br />

(Pg 3-40 <strong>of</strong> the Dash 5). On both sorties my co-pilotransferred the fuel to the appropriate<br />

loading prior to engine start.<br />

During my inirial inten,iew witl@on i2 Sep, he asked me why "Neutron," our 0SS<br />

Weapons <strong>of</strong>ficers were not used for weapons pre-fltghts. My response was that "Neutron's" job<br />

is to pre-flight CSRL weapons during our nuclear generations. During the generation. Neutron<br />

u'ill pre-flight fhese weapons prior to crew-show. Maintenance rotates the CSRL and each<br />

internal weapon station receileS a pre-flight inspection. When the cterry shows to the aircyaft<br />

during the generation the <strong>of</strong>fense team pre-flights the external missiles. During Tac Ferrv<br />

missions no internal weapons are loaded. so Ncutron was not ulilized. I have every reason to<br />

believe that Minot creu s accompiished theil standard extemal weapons pre-flights as outlined irt<br />

the -12 tech order.<br />

As far as Tac Ferry packages go, rhe job thar I do is to FrcFarc ihc hard cop!<br />

records for shipment and receipt for preparaiicn cf thc Tac Ferr.! packages. This entails fe.riev in n lhe missi)e. p)'lon, or anl'<br />

componenL that is currentll' inslalled in a missile on a paflicular pl,lon that is ro be shipped our through rhe TAC Ferr)'process. Oo<br />

13 Aug 07. I tlped inl0 ihe 392 screen for pvlon 203 on IMDS stating "Prep for shipment io Barksdale AFB lia TACFerri<br />

by myseif and 10 the best <strong>of</strong> m]' knowledge. the 95 is compleie and rcady r0 be boxed and shipped out u'irh the p\ lon ro Barksdale. I<br />

also pholocopJ the !ecords thar are 10 b€ shipped so we will have a copy for ourselrres if something happens in transjtion such as<br />

loss or \'' hate{er the case nray he. This can take place whenever I find time to do il afrer I have been notified lhal lhat p)loD is oDe <strong>of</strong><br />

our TAC Ferrl packages to be shipped our. This doesn'f happen thc day <strong>of</strong>being shipped out or even a day hefcJle. Normally, I try to<br />

finish all <strong>of</strong> my entries for the pvlon ihar is being shipped out as soon as I can so I donl have to rush through lhem a few days prior<br />

to the da! that il is supposed to ship. This so iar has been a u'eek to lwo wecks prior to the pylons being shipped out. <strong>The</strong> entries<br />

have ro co[elation to work lhat has bcer done by other shops outside ol Analysis. This is just !r'hat is lyJred saying the records are<br />

prepped for shipment. I do nol schedul€ u'hen pylons come and p)'lons go.l am normally handed a list saying $'hich pylons are<br />

being shipped oul this month and I \r'ork on that after ) norinal da!, Io day work is compl€ted. N,Iy tortrai day to day work would<br />

be closing out work orders for iobs that were donc by Missi)e Maintenanct and updating 95 \ for the jobs Ihal were done.<br />

IV. STATEMENT<br />

I atteoded the initial PDi\4 lll implementation Conference on 16 Nor'06 t*ith lre@<br />

5 l\'fuNsil\'txw. After the<br />

meeting, !v€ began 5 B\\'coordination with ACC/A3SO for the upcomirg Tactical Ferr] (TF) missions berrveen 2 B\\' and 5 B\\'<br />

slated to begin in Mar - Apr 07-<br />

Beginning in November (bx6) Acc 5 MLNSIMXW, andl-tulf:Els MLTNSA4Xw, b€gan coordinaring the TF<br />

sortie schcdule internally and witb 2 BW and ACC POCs. IAW the ACC Cruise Missile Repositioning Order (REPORD), the TF<br />

schedule was to be deconflicted with HHQ CPO taskings (to the maximum €xlent possible). Alier4 months <strong>of</strong>extensive<br />

coordination throughout 5 OG /5 N{XG,2 BW, and ACC. the approved ? BW-5 BWTF Sortie schedulewas released. I first saw<br />

the final version via e-mail on I I Apr 07,<br />

On 6 f eb Ot.f-l5i6iffi-IACC/A3SO, initialll solicired u inq inpur fo" the ACC Cruise Missile Repositioning Order<br />

ensure safe, effective TF sortiFzEabfipnslfiGnt prior to the first TF movement<br />

We started working TF ORM issues at our first meeting on 24 Jan 07. ORM feam members throughout 5 OG and 5 MXG<br />

(including 5 MUNS, 5 AMXS, 23 BS, 5 OSS, 5 tvIXS. 5 MOS, 5 OG, 5 MXC, 5 BWXP and 5 BWSE) worked for the next t\r'o<br />

monrhs identirying potential risks and possible solutions, culminating in an approval briefto Group and Wing Leadership in<br />

coniunction with scheduted 2l-165 meetingson2l and22Mar 07. We also solicited inputs from 2 BW ORM POCS. Afler<br />

receiving final 2 OC ,"ui"r" f.om @<br />

2 oc oRM POC. I forwarded rhe TF ORM package to 5 BWXP for final wing<br />

coordination and release to ACC/A]SO on 5 Api 07. ACC/A3SO staffed tbe ORM package intemally.<br />

During OIM coordinatioo, we identified and examined several key issues. Ofparticular concern wereproper2 BUr-5 BW<br />

preparation prior to execution; mission command and control; missicn GoAIo-Go criteria for launch, enrou{e, and recovery,<br />

aircrew training: identification <strong>of</strong>an initial instructor cadre to ensure slandardization; specific divert base selection and<br />

coordination; CG/Ballast issues aff€cling safe aircraf't recovery; "on-call" tanker support in case <strong>of</strong> fuel emergencies; approved<br />

jettison areas and airctew procedures: proper aircrew mission materials (PTOB, TF academics, charts, fligh1 plans, Forms F / fuel<br />

curves foreach TF sortie type, etc.), and missile'l'l"P vetification.<br />

Concurre with ORM coordination, 5 OG and 5 MXG POCs worked to mitigate TF mission-relaled issues. This resulted inTF<br />

pilot-specific academics; use <strong>of</strong>the weapon system trainer for heavy weight landing ptactice wilh external missiles under varying<br />

aircraft and runway conditions; extensive divert coordination wirh landingbase POCs to €nsur€ B-52 suitability; utiiizatiot <strong>of</strong>a<br />

scheduled 5 BW sortie u,ith planned air refueling, when available, as a backup in case the TF sonie needed additional fuel;<br />

scheduling a full crew complement (minimum <strong>of</strong>lP, CP, IR, and N) \,rith at least one instructor pilot and one instructor radar on<br />

every TF sortje; and a detailed prg{ake<strong>of</strong>f briefing covering mission execution and Go^.lo-Go criteria, tactical ferr; aircrew<br />

procedures, a detailed review <strong>of</strong> missile preflight acrions with expected indications for tacticai ferry payloads, aircre\l weapon<br />

checks to ensure no missile faults inhibiting mission success, review <strong>of</strong>jettison procedures, landing procedures with external<br />

AR contingencies, and divert base considerations. I emailed the TF academics and pre-take<strong>of</strong>f br;efin8s r{@}<br />

Tactical fen,v s<strong>of</strong>iies were flown befiveen Barksdale AF'ts and \4inot AFB on Tuesdays<br />

and Thursdays during scheduled ueeks. Crew mernbers accomplished missiol plauing<br />

for both 5 BW sorties on Mondays in one <strong>of</strong> the 5 OG vault classrooms. 5 OSS/A-SN<br />

was POC for all TF mission planning. We presented the Pre-Takeo[f / Mission Planning<br />

briefing to all crer ynembers at the beginning <strong>of</strong> each mission p)aruring session. Alier the<br />

initial briefing, IPs reviewed academics r.r,ith the crew, while the IR conducted a thorough<br />

review <strong>of</strong> T.O tactical ferry procedures, u'eapons preflight. weapons check. jettison area<br />

procedures, and emergency in-flight notification procedures with all crewmembers. 5<br />

OSS/A-5N personnel were available to answer any questions throughouthe mjssion<br />

planning day.<br />

Crew show on Tuesdays and Thursdays was 0530L, with a 0800L ta.he<strong>of</strong>f 5 OSS/A-5N,<br />

5 OSS/A-3W, and the SOF provided pertinenl information (weather, to include divert<br />

bases: aircraft status. airfield conditions. etc.) to aid the OG/CC in his decision to execute<br />

that day's TF sortie. After execution, the 2 BW/5 BW SOFs worked together to ensure<br />

information cross-flo*'until both day's sorties were on the ground at their respective<br />

location.<br />

Once 5 BW TF aircrews returned on Thursday, 5 OSS/A-5N collected all mission<br />

paperwork and debriefed with the crew. Ifpossible, 5 OSS/A-5N would incorporate<br />

crew member suggestions into mission materials or TF sortie procedures.<br />

had found that she was disconnected from the flight so I took it upon myself to bridge<br />

manning issues with her or I would also talk abouthe needs <strong>of</strong> the sections v/ith the<br />

NCOICS and then bridge the issues v!!h her, As alf <strong>of</strong> thiqwas occurrinE, I had<br />

problems with two other SNCO's ACC who ran IMF support.<br />

Both <strong>of</strong> these indivrduals also displayed problems <strong>of</strong> leadership and management, bul<br />

they were worse tharf-iuxfrcc .las both <strong>of</strong> them were unpr<strong>of</strong>essional which led to a<br />

myriad <strong>of</strong> problems in the flight. I validated my observations by asking around the flight<br />

and talking with my dependable SNCO's. I also found out quickly that mentorship at the<br />

opinion as the other two failed io commit. I was forced to keep them in place without any<br />

personnel observation, but withrn two months they failed an inspection miserably. /n the<br />

was a collectrve sigh ot reliefrom many members <strong>of</strong> my flight who expressed gratitude<br />

that someone is finally makjng the hard decisions, but they were disappointed that the<br />

Chlefs tailed to act and the f:-1b-f'6-IAdc---f was the one forced to take action. As for<br />

l-lb)€) Acc-l I stil/ had nop" ioi ftirn anO t tneO to help him with managing, but sometime<br />

in March I wanted to replace him as well. His shop did not respect him and there was<br />

no way to improve other than micro-managing him. Again both Chiefs said after the<br />

generation, then after the NSSAV, after "MSgf' results, finally after Global Thunder.<br />

l-Ti6jEE-lrryas the individual that I knew needed to run that shop and infuse the proper<br />

but he worked in anotherflight andl----tu-ttoaElwould not move him, Agein;me<br />

squadron did not act fast enough and leadership did not make the changes when they<br />

were necessary and this is seen throughout the flight when inaction leads to despair in<br />

from (bx6i Acc she worked with him at a previous assiqnment. I talked v/ith<br />

him on countless occasions about the condition ol the High Bay, the way he was<br />

managing and how he needed to start stepping up and the way ne_gngegeflhl!eople<br />

was<br />

selected to SMSgt and when that occurred,l---liiGildd-lsurprisingly (qujckly)<br />

decided he was gorng to move up to the flight, I did not concur with this since he had<br />

shown he could not lead his shop, he needed more time as an NCOIC, he needed to<br />

work on his communication and it would be months before he put on the stripe. I did get<br />

the suppod on lhis event as squadron supervtsion did not move him up.<br />

Additionally, when I took over the flight, some fundamentaf maintenance practices were<br />

not being done. <strong>The</strong> flight leadership chose not to engage these issues which are<br />

fundamental to maintenance. Chemicalstored outside the support section against<br />

AFI's, paperwork not being accomplished, no coordination between shops, etc are<br />

some <strong>of</strong> the blatant Jailures. My predecessors tailed and currently the flight d jd not<br />

engage those issues. f &x6) Acc-l came to the flight supervision al the same time as<br />

started to slowly fix the problems. lt took time changing a culture and environment that<br />

had been breeding for years and much more needs to be done. One <strong>of</strong> the major<br />

difficulties as an I-----l5fGI-qrJ-"1 was my engagement in the lower levels was not<br />

normal for this flight as the <strong>of</strong>ficers remained hands otf. lt was stated numerous times<br />

that I was getting too much into their business and that 'f----tb-)(-6t-ffi--l do not go out<br />

to the bay''. lt turns out that the flight became accustomed<br />

During my inten.ie* \vith the CDI team, \r'e revie\r,ed/discussed the schedule for the week <strong>of</strong> 20-26 Aug 0? and 27Aug-2Sep 07,<br />

20 Aug, showed Upload Pkg for pylons GZLO1 and G2111 . <strong>The</strong> intended work was tactical feFV prepararion and the schedule<br />

shouldhave shou'n Tac FerryPrep. In the scheduliug process, each flight/section meets weekly and revieu's the nexl weeks<br />

scheduied work At tbe weekly squadron scheduiing rreeting, the slides are reviewed aId the cover sheel signcd by each flight,<br />

MOS P&S and Sq Supenision. Afterwards, it is combined with tle schedule slides and routine workorders. I nas asked q'ho is<br />

allowed to make a change to the schedule and wlrat was the process for making the change. lexpiained,ifachangetotheschedule<br />

is needed, tbe u,ork center should coordinate the requirementhrough the Flight Production Superintendent or Flight<br />

Chief/Commander and to Sq Supervision. Approvgllgsbglgglhslchedr.rle slides for significant mainrenance comes from Mx<br />

p('int relayed to Ir)e lioro recent bistory is thar rvhen our squadrons deployed 1() Diego Garcia ibr<br />

OnF'iolF (2005), crerv rnembers werc breaking access door panels during the weapons<br />

pretlights. therefore "spot checks" emerged..the crews had io trust munitions expens to set the<br />

$,eapor1s correctly.<br />

One last discussion oD weapons pre-flight checklists... I was infOrmed that a GBU-3 t (JDAivl)<br />

pretlight c.hecklisl uses the an[otation (Rrr-,N) as the rcsponsc to check the lveapons, mcalliltg<br />

either the radar navigalcrr or the navigator checks the $capon. ln the AGM-129 checldjst. the<br />

annotatiorl is (RN,N) as the response. u4rich means that borh tl.rc radar navigatol and the<br />

navigator had to check the weapon. \\/hen we asked our ,iveapons <strong>of</strong>ficers u.hy the difiercncc,<br />

therc a s\Tel \vas tl)at AGM-129 checklist is tbr nuclcar wcapons, rvhich requires thc "2 person"<br />

collcepl. <strong>The</strong>re is ve.rbiage in the T.O. statng that thc T.O. ctrvers nuclear surery proccdures.<br />

Auain, *,itli tur vieu, that drc'Tac Fcrry was a non-nuclear missir.tn (no mrclear u'arhead). u,e did<br />

not push to have ? people preflight thc weapon,<br />

With resards to 2 ()G scheduling, I think our proccss is solid. Lr hindsight. the 2 O(j did nor<br />

SUBJECT: Stalemenl regarding circumstancesurrounding the unauthodzed movement <strong>of</strong> WR<br />

ACM Pylon to the MAFB flight line dudng tac J'erry operatlons<br />

i. <strong>The</strong> following statement is given Iiom the perspective <strong>of</strong> the commanding <strong>of</strong>ficer <strong>of</strong>the 5th<br />

Munitions Squadron. It is given based on my understanding <strong>of</strong>the discoveries made during the<br />

roughly I 8 hour u'indow from the first notification <strong>of</strong> the incident until the time I was relieved <strong>of</strong><br />

duties as the Commander. Further background relevanto the incident as I understand it is also<br />

given to add information to my oral statement made to the Investigating Officer and to assist hrm<br />

in his determination <strong>of</strong>the cause <strong>of</strong>the incident, as well as to help prevent a recurrence <strong>of</strong><br />

anlthing remotely similar.<br />

2. In the hours after verifyng that the mishap had occurred, and afler discovering indicators that<br />

pointed to 5 MLrNS actions resulting in delivery <strong>of</strong>a WR nuclear pylon to thejet for upload and<br />

feny, I informed my chain <strong>of</strong> command that I took full personal responsibility for the actions <strong>of</strong><br />

my squadron. I still accept responsibility as it is my duty 10 do, and a mistalie <strong>of</strong> this magnitude<br />

cannot be excused nor accepted. Although I stand by rny performance and the decisions I made<br />

as the Commander <strong>of</strong> the 5th Munitions Squadron, rhis statement is made solely in the interests<br />

<strong>of</strong>national security and nuclear surety, irrespective <strong>of</strong> any personal or organizational image.<br />

3. During the oral interview I was asked about biographical details and questioned about<br />

giiidance given to my squadron and the command climate during my tenure as Commander. I<br />

had served as the commander <strong>of</strong> the 5th Munitions Squadron for nearly I4 months. Prior to<br />

assuming command <strong>of</strong> the 5 MIINS, I had just relinquished a successful command <strong>of</strong> the 16th<br />

Equipmenl Maintenance Squadron in the 16tb Special Operations Wing, Hurlburt l-ield. <strong>The</strong><br />

5 MXG Commander who hired me relayed to me that he had specifically requested a graduated<br />

squadr on comnander with nuclear experience to command his largest and most demanding<br />

squadron. I fit the graduated comrnirnder bill, in fact rhe l6 EMS was larger (by about 150<br />

members) than 5 MLINS and even more demanding due to operational rempo and a lack <strong>of</strong> prescreening<br />

<strong>of</strong>personnel vis-d-vis the Personnel Reliability Program. My nuclear munitions<br />

experience u'as dated, however, with a l3 year gap since last performing those duties. I feel I<br />

had done my home\\,ork and closed that gap pnor to the June2006NSSAV. In general, my Air<br />

Force sewice has spanned 4 MAJCOMs, included l3 combat coded deployrnents and duty<br />

assignments, '"r,ith the exception <strong>of</strong> 3 tAyews out <strong>of</strong> l8 at the unit level.<br />

4. My characterization <strong>of</strong> the 5 MLINS is one <strong>of</strong> pnde irr its phenomenal track record <strong>of</strong><br />

excellence. In keeoins with the broader "Team Minot" culture <strong>of</strong> or<strong>of</strong>essionalisnr. the 5th<br />

Munitions Squadron's pride and pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism sels the installalion benchmark. and is a leadilg<br />

element in Minot eaming her positive reputation. 5 ll{l,rNS is the reigning Air Ciomf.r<br />

UNCLASSIFIED<br />

Command Mainienance Eflectiveness Ar,l'ard rtinner as the niost outstanding Missile and<br />

Munitions Maintenance Squadron. Up until this incident, rvc rvere tallying up another year <strong>of</strong><br />

accornplishments, superior evalualions and deployments that would have been fonnidable in<br />

competing for our 4'n consecutive year as ACC's best. I think the consistency <strong>of</strong> her<br />

performance adds to the shock that something like this could happen to ACC's "A-Team."<br />

5 . AII the empirical information accumulateduring higher headquarters inspections, and recent<br />

local exercise performance indicated that the squadron u'as heading in the right direction,<br />

notwithstanding the impacts <strong>of</strong> uorkload and constrained career field challenges. <strong>The</strong> HQ ACC<br />

I-SET inspection was only 5 months old, with the squadron finalizing closure <strong>of</strong> the small<br />

number <strong>of</strong> findings in ir. 1o quote the LSET report on our performance:<br />

"<strong>The</strong> 5 MXG displayed a high level <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism and maintenance discipline by<br />

achieving some <strong>of</strong> the best quality assurancevaluation resuhs seen 10 date. <strong>The</strong> LSET<br />

did not identify any DSVs, UCRs or TDVs in the 5 MXG during the visit. <strong>The</strong> 5 MLINS<br />

munitions control and assetracking database provided improved aircraft generation<br />

tracking and is the only program to produce automated custody transfer papenr.ork for<br />

transfer <strong>of</strong> PLI assets, eaming an LSET Honorable Mentjon."<br />

"<strong>The</strong> hard-charging warriors <strong>of</strong>the 5 Munitions Squadron were producing world class<br />

munitions support to one <strong>of</strong> the most diverse missions in the Air Force- Meticulous,<br />

competent leadership was evident ttuoughoul the unit. A motivated, highly-skilled<br />

workforce ensured mission accomplishment despite a multitude <strong>of</strong> competing priorities.<br />

However, a hrgh number <strong>of</strong>Special Inspection failures in the areas <strong>of</strong>support program<br />

managemenl detracted from an otherwise solid performance."<br />

<strong>The</strong> I,SET evaluation not identifyng any DSVs, UCRs or TDVs across the lvhole group is<br />

unheard <strong>of</strong> and it is our understanding it is a first in l5 ACC LSETs. To give some perspective<br />

on how superior the N,IUNS performance was, the Maintenance Group as a i',.hole received 628<br />

graded evals with an overall pass rate <strong>of</strong> 88.50%. 5 MUNS' contribution was 53% (330) <strong>of</strong> the<br />

total MXG's evals with an overall pass rate <strong>of</strong> 9lol0, Even the comment on the detractor <strong>of</strong><br />

support program management fell into the category <strong>of</strong> special inspections in u'hich 5 MLDiS<br />

eamed a 97o/o pass rate! <strong>The</strong> sole deficiency was in one element which received vigorous<br />

conective action, nevv' leadership, and a validating clean bill <strong>of</strong>health during a rigorous<br />

inspection<br />

the June 2007 ACC NSSAV. Follolving corrective actions for NSSAV findings,<br />

we were just entering our NSI prep cycie for the Nov/Dec JNSI. Our solid performance dunng<br />

extemal evaluations begs many questions as to what more, in terms <strong>of</strong> management data or gaps<br />

in policy, actually exrst. Just the preparation and self-inspection process nomrally helps selfidentify<br />

deficiencies in meeting policy anti procedural guidance.<br />

6. <strong>The</strong> following information is based on my insight on the overall command climate and culture<br />

<strong>of</strong>the organization, and would, I believe, b€ supporled at all leadership levels <strong>of</strong> the 5rh MUNS.<br />

ln my first month as commauder <strong>of</strong> 5 L{L\rS, I had to cope ra,ith 3 DUIs from members <strong>of</strong> our<br />

squadron. I truly belier.e my clarity tn communicating standards and the deiiberate and<br />

determined eflort to remove [hose who had no business being assigncd to PRP duties resulted in<br />

a squadron culture <strong>of</strong> S ELF-disc ipl;ne, resulting in 13 slraight morths u'iLhout a DLll. In the last<br />

UNCLASSIFIED<br />

4 months our squadrcn has had negligibie misconduct ro deal with. r,r'hich in a large maintenance<br />

squadron such as the Sth MUr.\S, speaks volumes as to the caliber <strong>of</strong> people working within this<br />

orgarxzatlon.<br />

7. As to how I established guidance when I first arrived, I established a commander's intent to<br />

provide a guide for independent action in the absence <strong>of</strong>orders. I disseminated that policy<br />

immediately upon taking command with the squadron's SNCOs and Officers, and later with the<br />

squadron in the form a commander's call (Please See Attacbment I ). My overriding guidance<br />

was contaired in rwo booklets, the AF Core Values and the Enlisted Force Structure (A!-I 36-<br />

2618) providing clear and simple expectations <strong>of</strong> all Airmen. <strong>The</strong> 5 MXG Commander's 4<br />

Pillars <strong>of</strong> Maintenance (Iech data, Safety, Training & Attitude) were reinforced at that initial<br />

commander's call and at most every one after that, Additionally, the my commander's intent otr<br />

safety and its importance in a munitions squadron is is a message delivered personally by me at<br />

newcomers briefings.<br />

8. Following the string <strong>of</strong> DUIs in the flrst month <strong>of</strong> rny command, the squadron and the MXG<br />

as a whole began to show a trend in DSV, TDV and UCR indicators in August and early<br />

September 2006. As a result <strong>of</strong>this early trend, I held another commander's call on 26<br />

September 06 (?lease See Attachment XX) to teach CRM/ORM and resort to what I called the<br />

"Woody Hays coaching method" <strong>of</strong> grabbing the facemask and shaking some helmets. I laid out<br />

my view <strong>of</strong> safety in the mainlenance pr<strong>of</strong>ession and reinforced the 5 MXG's 4 pillars <strong>of</strong><br />

maintenance discipline; i taught CRM principles, followed by the reviewing the Charleslon AFB<br />

Class A maintenance fatality mishap report to include plalng the cockpit voice recorder. J he<br />

intent was 10 show jusl how serious and deadly our pr<strong>of</strong>ession can be. I culminated it with the<br />

delivery <strong>of</strong>my "General Order #l on TO use." I handed out the order to all those in attendance.<br />

Although the form <strong>of</strong> the order was somewhat flarved (i.e. it was categorized as a "General<br />

Order"), my intent and expectations pursuanto thal order were clearly communicated. <strong>The</strong> 5<br />

MXC/CC took my order, modified it and published it as a MXG policy directive (still resident<br />

on the MXG publications page). I followed this commander's call with the publication to my<br />

squadron <strong>of</strong>my "Cornnander's Intent for Safety," which can be found on safety bulletin boards<br />

and u,hich is posted on the squadron publication web site. Anecdotally, the message <strong>of</strong>the<br />

commander's intent on safety and its emphasis on everyone's general military authonty 1

Included in the questions were a nunber <strong>of</strong> areas such as culture, standards and guidance thal<br />

ideally should be 100% absolutes but was not. <strong>The</strong> feedback pror.ided rne an opportunity lo not<br />

orly share the results, but reinforce and make clear the duties and obligations <strong>of</strong>all squadron<br />

members as well as the pathway to policy or tech order improvemeut. ln responding to open<br />

endedquestionssuchas"Ifwehadanaccidenlitwillbebecause..,"thesquadronmembers<br />

detailed astutely the danger areas and typical causes <strong>of</strong>mishaps. Reinlbrcing what they already<br />

knew about the dangers <strong>of</strong> T.O. r,iolations, lapses in pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism or complacency was easy<br />

enough. However, based on the results <strong>of</strong>that study, i felt that there were important lssues<br />

regarding my view <strong>of</strong>time pressure and deadlines that needed to be responded to. I was clear to<br />

the squadron that there v/as absolutely no imperative so great that it required rushing.<br />

10. l'he feedback was useful on a number <strong>of</strong> fionts fiom pnoritizing resources to addressing the<br />

cencerns <strong>of</strong> the members. Mosl importantly, however, it provided insight to the line NCOs on<br />

the climate <strong>of</strong> the unit they helped lead. It was apparento all <strong>of</strong> the new MXG squadron<br />

commanders that all <strong>of</strong> our personnel had become conditioned to accept chronic under funding -<br />

to the point <strong>of</strong> not expecting or previously getting proper cold weather individual equipment (in<br />

Minot no less), and feeling lucky to get hand-me-do*"r: fumjfure from the 91" Space Wing. Also<br />

apparent was the seeming contradiction between the MXG maintainers being some <strong>of</strong> the most<br />

pr<strong>of</strong>essional in the Air Force and the requirement that they live and work in conditions <strong>of</strong><br />

resource and facility neglect. By the fall <strong>of</strong> 2006, following the results <strong>of</strong> this sun ey and the<br />

issuance <strong>of</strong>the T.O. use directive, I began actively hunting for normalization <strong>of</strong>deviance in work<br />

standards and practices. Normalization <strong>of</strong> deviance is the well known sociological phenomenon<br />

in safety circles where an organization repeatedly lowers standurds or accepts risks until they<br />

became the norm. This is rvhat occurred in the space shuttle Colunrbia disaster. I came to<br />

realize that there were very few chances for this to occur in the-\{XG, primarily due to the<br />

dorninant presence <strong>of</strong> the Group Commander at 1911ms[--l;i6i;-c -l<br />

He was well inro his<br />

third year cornmanding the group, and his expectations and intolerance for mediocrity were well<br />

establjshed. In fact, when a high quality performance was tumed in by the 5'n BW maintainers<br />

(like the LSET result); you could always expect a briefpat on the back and a proud chest<br />

thurnping, followed by a pointed descnption <strong>of</strong>how you could have done it better.<br />

11. In addition to the command climate <strong>of</strong> the 5th MUI,{S, I would also like to add additional<br />

unit perspective inputs on a few areas that appeared to be areas <strong>of</strong>concem to the CDI team. Ihe<br />

first is the tactrcal i'erry planning and execution involvement <strong>of</strong>the squadron. I have attached a<br />

series <strong>of</strong> e-mails (Please See Attachment 4) showjng the course <strong>of</strong>events and the important<br />

teadershipl-----i6l6iiG---lprovided to the 5th Bomb Wing and ACC in plarming a safe<br />

executable plan. | (uxo)ecc ldrd rhe vast majority <strong>of</strong>the vvork in building thc corrsolidated<br />

plan for both wings to work from. In that string ol messgg-Iou will see a very astute concem<br />

for the conmrunication bet\'veen pJayers. as \\'ell al (bX1)Acc linfluence and suppon <strong>of</strong>safe<br />

deliberate operations.<br />

12, Another area highlighted by the ClDl was regarding the maintenance scheduling process in<br />

the MXC and MLINS, which was made apparent during a review <strong>of</strong> the scheduling products built<br />

during the prep phasc <strong>of</strong> the tac ferry ACN{ pylons in question. <strong>The</strong>re were serious and<br />

thoughtful questions posed regarding the control <strong>of</strong>the maintenance schedule. In order to vieu'<br />

UNCLASSIFIED 144


UNCLASSIFIED<br />

this process in context, a brief history is imporlant to colrsider. Up through fiscal year'06 .<br />

5 MLINS had assigned to the squadron its own Plans, Scheduling & Documentation element<br />

rvithin feer <strong>of</strong> the Maintenance Supervision <strong>of</strong>llce and Munitions Control. At the beginning <strong>of</strong><br />

FY '07, the ACC 2R fiurctional staffed and had approved a consolidation <strong>of</strong> 2R PS&D personnel<br />

ulder the wing PS&D flight in MoS. As a result <strong>of</strong> PBD 720 and the resultins declease in<br />

mannins levels. there was no real altemattve bul to consolidate resources.<br />

watched this transition with extrene caution and did his best to ensure many <strong>of</strong>the gaps that<br />

were created by the move were lllled. An example is the requirement in A-FI 21-201 para 6-4.1.3<br />

for PS&D to maintain tightning protection records This gap was discovere during an 8 A-F<br />

Safety SAV shortly after the PS&D consolidation. As a resuh, aud because the lack <strong>of</strong> trust and<br />

control over the personnel responsible for them, Munitions Control was slven the dut)'<strong>of</strong><br />

maintaining these critical records. Also dunng this transition time<br />

followed<br />

up on 5 MUNS practices regarding MM III reentry sysrem (RS) configuration scheduiing aller<br />

receiving a dull sword cross-feed where other units had issued an inccrrrectly configured RS to<br />

deployed missiles. During his cbeck he discovered and helped avert thc real possibiiity <strong>of</strong> our<br />

RS sectiorr issuing an incorrectly configured system to the field. <strong>The</strong> issue was signrficant<br />

enough to wanalI320 AF/Cg-pellgy directive regarding RS configuralion control (Please See<br />

Attachrnent 5). lso came to discover that 2R schedulers lacked sufficient<br />

training in tech school and had minimal CFETP tasks regardlng munitions and missile<br />

scheduling. Arrcraft and equipment scheduling dominated the training for the majority <strong>of</strong> Air<br />

Force schedulers.<br />

13. Following the loss <strong>of</strong> the unit assigned schedulers due to PBD 720 driven consolidation and<br />

pcrsonell attrition, the accunlulated krowledge gained through OJT for munitions scheduling<br />

was impacted and the squadron was left u'itiffuxlil@iEdl as our dedicated scheduler u'orking<br />

underthesupervisiono@n5MoS'Botharecompetentleaders<br />

bu1 are coping with priority management, skill level deficiencies and understaffing. Finally, I<br />

revieu'ed the current guidance and policy regarding maintenance scheduling in AFIs 21-101<br />

(CAf Sup), AFI 21-200, AFI 2l-201, AFI2I-204 and ACCI 2l -165. Specific revier,'<strong>of</strong>the<br />

ACCI 21-165 procedure is focused almost entirely on aircrafl scheduling requirements and<br />

Attachrnent I to that publicati on iglossa: <strong>of</strong>reJbrences and supporting information] docs not<br />

list a single munitions relaled reference. Further, the 14 uses <strong>of</strong>the word munitions in that<br />

publication all refer to preparation and configuration <strong>of</strong> munitions for aircraft and s<strong>of</strong>iie use.<br />

AFl2l -204 (4 May 07) identifies a "Munitions Plans & Scheduling (P&S)," though one does<br />

not exist in the CAF, bu1 does call out duties in support <strong>of</strong>nuclear weapons related schedultng<br />

requirements. Also <strong>of</strong>note, in the maintenance policy artd procedure documents, Icouldhndno<br />

current reference for building a maintenance schedule at the squadron Jevel. Only consolidated<br />

wing schedules are called for. <strong>The</strong> lact that one was being built at the squadron level is<br />

something that has been done as a matter <strong>of</strong>past practice. I am uncertain jf it was a result <strong>of</strong> the<br />

2l -204 Munitions P&S holdover euidance.<br />

14. A 6nal matter that rl'as raised during my interview u ith the investigating <strong>of</strong>ficer * as the<br />

assertioD that the persorurel in the 5 MlJli-.S Munitir.rns Cortrol Section were not knorvledgeable<br />

oltheir duties and u'ere characterized as "robots." It is possible thal because <strong>of</strong> the stress <strong>of</strong> the<br />

pendrng investigation or a lilnited number <strong>of</strong> inten'ieu s led to that impression. Ilon'ct'er, based<br />

UNCLASSIFIED 145


UNCLASSIFIED<br />

on first hand obsen'ations <strong>of</strong> Munitions flontrol controllers over the past year, I have a distilrctly<br />

different opinion. Al examplc <strong>of</strong>the competence <strong>of</strong>the persornel in the Munitions Control<br />

Section would be my over rhe shoulder observatiou <strong>of</strong>l------Tlrc) o_lduring3 rng:1_<br />

recapture/recovery exercise. During this dlnamic and slressful exercise, I witnessedl (lXoJ aCc I<br />

cooliy cut tbJough the fog and begin to lead and guide munitions persorurel respottding to the<br />

atack scenario. I observed--i6iGilid-kuiding a Secunty Forces CSC controller tfuough the<br />

use <strong>of</strong> the Security Forces' ou,r "Cntical Action Code Book" procedures to help tbe new<br />

controller gain srtuational awareness about the attack scenario and mainlain cntical OPSEC. He<br />

and other controllers aJso managed very complex munitiotrs trailer movemenls, ensured weapons<br />

brealiout and delivery was timely and safe during the demanding USSTR A.TCOM Exercise<br />

GLOBAI THTINDER in August 2007. Finally, the recent review during LSET and an ACC<br />

NSSAV, less than 90 days ago. which resulted in very positive results does no1 support the claim<br />

that the Munitions Control Section is not competent.<br />

15, In addition to this statemenr, I have attached an additional written stalement u'hich includes<br />

my assessment <strong>of</strong> some classified matenal which may assisthe Investigating Officer with his<br />

investigation (Please See the classified addenda to this statement). I stand ready 10 assist further<br />

in any way to ensure that all the contributing factors in the chain olevents that led to this mishap<br />

are investigated thoroughly to prevent any possible reculrence.<br />

Respectfulfy request your review and concurrence with this schedule. <strong>The</strong> selected f1yin9<br />

weeks hawe been meticulously deconfL-icted uith both wings' strategic calendars.<br />

Barksdale's w.i:rg Poc has confirned this schedule with all involved agencies arld is also<br />

coordinating it with his group and wing leadership. t{e are at your disposal to discuss<br />

any ques hions / concerns at any time or if you wouLd f-ike to meet to discuss the schedule in<br />

general prior to preseneing it to the wing commander/vrce, please fet us know and 'le will<br />

make that happen. fhis schedule r.akes Lhe best use <strong>of</strong> planned aircralE tajl swaps and as<br />

nany effjciencies as possible wj.ll be used to smartly mowe required number <strong>of</strong> mjssiles.<br />

once approved by you and the wiDg, it is ready to forward to Acc. Recommend xP be the<br />

Lhese dates wi:hout impacting othe viing requirements. <strong>The</strong>r:e are four weeks ,rr the last<br />

quarter <strong>of</strong> the calendar year that are not currently filled that we need to reserve aE<br />

"fal] back" TF ldeeks in case severe vieather, nx/ops issues cause either unit to postpone a<br />

haviog a mx problem. rt canllot make it in Apri1, so Ehey would like to swap the April and<br />

taay "iail swlp-nound Trjp" schedule keeping Ehe flying dates the same' Also, it was<br />

recommerded r,ie make the November date yellow (r'eserved on the ca]endar as a fall back<br />

date) and the 29 Oct - 2 Nov week a primary TF week. That gives us che Noveftdrer $/eek as<br />

arroLher fall back date, whj.ch makes sense- Also, Dec 1O-14 and !1 -2I are avallable on<br />

b()th oltr wing calendars as leserve weeks. I recommend we push ou! XPs/wing leadership to<br />

keep theln open as dedrcaLed TF reserave weeks<br />

FROM:<br />

(bx6) Acc<br />

SUBJECT: [f Classified addenda to statement regarding circumsrances<br />

surrounding the unauthorized movement <strong>of</strong> a WR ACM Pylon to the Minot AFB<br />

flight line.<br />

L (L) Ihc following statement is given from the perspectir.e <strong>of</strong> the commanding<br />

<strong>of</strong>ficer <strong>of</strong> the 5th Munitions Squadron. Background relevant to the incident, as I<br />

understand it, is given to assisthe investigation in determining the sequence <strong>of</strong><br />

events and causal factors that led to the movement <strong>of</strong> a WR ACM p14on to the<br />

Minot flight line. My overarching reason for providing this statement is that I<br />

strongly feel it is my duty to assist in preventing a recurrence <strong>of</strong> anything remotely<br />

similar. Personal impact or unit reputation is clearly secondary to our national<br />

secun ty.<br />

2. (U) Classification <strong>of</strong> tliis statement is IAW AFI 3I-407 Ait'Force Nuclear<br />

'lleapons<br />

Securi4, (la5s;7"ation Policy (S-FRD), and the publications upon rvhich it is derived.<br />

3. (lJCNl) During my oral testimony, some <strong>of</strong> tlie findings <strong>of</strong> the CDI were revealed<br />

to me regarding the building <strong>of</strong>the maintenance schedule for the week the tac-ferry<br />

preps were p.lanned. It appears the preparation <strong>of</strong> the ACM pylon G2203 was<br />

taken <strong>of</strong>fthe approved schedule and replaced with another ACM pylon. <strong>The</strong><br />

Investigatir,g <strong>of</strong>ficer relayed to me that he at present doesn't know<br />

chanqe or how it occurred.<br />

assertlon as well as data resa<br />

acled on them.<br />
