Abstract

Bath, David W. Assured Destruction: Building the Ballistic Missile Culture of the U.S. Air Force. Bath also shows that, because the Air Force never considered missile officer positions "rated" like flying positions, the positions carried negative connotations about promotion potential and disincentivised service in missile units.
