It more than emergency landings. Ask any Red Flag or SAC crew that has "clipped the box" and watch the expressions of ($%#@*&!!) as they might relate the butt-chewing (minimum) or loss or rank upon return to home base. LeMay and others were unforgiving about navigation errors. Had something to do with getting the bomb on target-perhaps.Missed Moscow but did end up at Vlad.
