Air Force relieves 2 commanders, 4 leaders at North Dakota nuclear bomber, missile base
[FoxNews] The Air Force did not say why it had lost confidence in the commanders and leaders.

The Air Force has relieved six leaders assigned to a North Dakota base in charge of nuclear missiles and bombers over a loss of confidence, the military branch said Monday.

Maj. Gen. Andrew J. Gebara, commander of 8th Air Force, relieved Col. Gregory Mayer of the 5th Mission Support Group and Maj. Jonathan Welch of the 5th Logistics Readiness Squadron, both based at Minot Air Force Base. The Air Force didn't identify the commanders, but an Air Force spokesperson confirmed their identities to Task & Purpose.

The 5th Bomb Wing operates the B-52H Stratofortress aircraft, which is one of the two types of nuclear-capable bombers that the Air Force uses, the news outlet reported.

#1 As one the commenters stated 'Mission Support Group' and 'Log Readiness Sqdn,' likely rear area folks and maintainers. I suspect a WOKE police action aimed at setting things 'straight' getting everyone else's attention. Just a wild guess.

Refueling trucks or K-loaders parked to form obscene message or gesture to a balloon ?
