I'm surprised they didnt also say that you could possibly get to drop shiny nuclear bombs on Godless Commies!

Compared to today, becoming an officer back then must of been really easy.

I estimate $5K in 1954 to be about $69K in 2011. Not bad to fly badass shiny new bombers.

..... Wait.... I have to go see my Air Force recruiter now. Gotta go.

Where would this promo have been shown? TV? Movie theaters?

[grooveclubhouse]

back when 5000 a year was something to brag about.

[ALFAGOMMA]

Great advert. I wonder how many pilots started on the B-47 then eventually moved to flying B-707s and DC-8s?

[TalksWithDirt]

@ALFAGOMMA The real question is how many guys went on to B-52's, then had their son and grand child also go on to fly the 52? You know it's happened, the question is how many times?

[crotchboots]

[TheTopBloke]

@crotchboots Why for Christ? Just kill a commie.
