Mail Call Episode 76

Mail Call host R. Lee Ermey is at Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri to do something only a few hundred humans have done before him - take a ride in a B-2 Stealth Bomber on a mock bomb run! Oohrah! In Act 1, the Gunny sets the stage for his historic flight by giving us the facts and stats on what makes the B-2 the greatest bomber in the history of aviation. Then, we go along on Lee's pre-flight training as he prepares to get airborne.In Act 2, we're in the cockpit with the Gunny so he can show viewers up close and personal what it's like to fly in a stealth bomber. What a rush! In Act 3, the Gunny lets us in on the fact that the Whiteman crew he's flown with are part of the 509th Bomber Group, the same squadron that flew the first atomic bomb missions back in World War Two. In his tribute to the 509th, the Gunny shows how the Enola Gay and other bombers got the mission done.
