Barksdale completes second NORE

BARKSDALE AIR FORCE BASE, La. – Aircrew from the 96th Bomb Squadron run to a B-52H Stratofortress after the sounding of the Klaxon during a Nuclear Operational Readiness Exercise May 25. The Klaxon is a horn that emits an alert sound that was previously used as hand-powered warning system for military evacuation, and as a submarine dive alarm. This warning is currently used electronically on trains, ships and aircrew who are on alert and may need to take-off at a moment’s notice. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Joanna M. Kresge)
