Yeah - that's what I'd do - nothing like carrying a live missile
around in your boat just for laughs. :).

"The bomb squad said the missile was very corroded from floating in
sal****er for a long time. They said it was live and in a very
unstable state."

I didn't know those things could float?

I wonder who got chewed on for losing live gear?

But then again, I always thought that they did train with live
ordinance for weight, but they weren't armed. either way it's not a
good situation


Could have been a failed rocket engine too.


And could have been a really old Sidewinder. I made shipping crates for
them in my teen years at a pallet company I worked for summers. And that is
51 years ago.
