20 years. Wow!
I was a 23 year old Air Force sergeant at that time. I was getting ready for a "swing" shift, and was just lacing up my boots, when they broke in with a "Special Report". I sat on the sofa just completely dumbfounded, as I stared at the images that were displayed before me. By the time I got to work, in the SAC underground Command Center, satellite images of the explosion were being brought up on display screens 2 stories tall. The entire command center was completely silent, save for the hum of electrical equipment. Not a single voice, or movement of any kind, could be heard. That was a sight that I will never forget.
