Nuclear Surety Inspection begins at Minot AFB

MINOT AIR FORCE BASE - A Nuclear Surety Inspection was initiated Wednesday at Minot Air Force Base.

The inspection team is led by a senior officer representative from the Air Combat Command Inspector General's office with oversight provided by representatives from the Air Force Inspection Agency and the office of the Secretary of the Air Force.

This no-notice inspection is expected to conclude May 22.

Such inspections are designed to evaluate a unit's readiness to execute nuclear operations and takes place at least every 18 months.

Due to the sensitive nature of the inspection process and the demands it places on the wing's leaders and airmen, details and results of the inspection will not be released until after it concludes.
