Missile combat crew : ウィキペディア英語版 | Missile combat crew A missile combat crew (MCC), is a team of highly trained specialists, often called Missileers, manning Intermediate Range and Intercontinental ballistic missile systems (IRBMs and ICBMs, respectively).〔(Bulletin of Atomic Scientists: "The Ever-ready Nuclear Missileer", Vol. 64, No. 3, pp. 14-21 )〕 In the United States, men and women, officially coded as Nuclear and Missile Operations Officers (AFSC 13NX), of the United States Air Force, operate underground missile systems at launch control centers located throughout the country.〔(F.E. Warren AFB Public Affairs: "Special child participates in first 'Missileer for a Day' tour", 26 June 2007 )〕 Crew size varied among the different missile systems, but the number was always greater than one, to abide by Strategic Air Command's Two-man rule for positive control of nuclear weapons. ==Origins== First missile combat crews were composed of trained aviators (i.e. B-47, B-36), but later generations had no aviation experience and were "grown" to be missileers from the start of their careers. Crews were composed of all males, until 1978, when the restriction of having women on crew was lifted for the Titan ICBM. For the Minuteman ICBM, the restriction was lifted on 1 January 1988.
