These findings are an unfortunate indictment of Ellsworth Air Force Base - one that came at great cost to US taxpayers. The only upside is the discovery of "...an unhealthy organizational culture that permitted degradation of airmanship skills" comes at a time when the U.S. isn't facing an international military crisis. We're down one B1-B, but the rest of the issues can hopefully be rectified ASAP....returning that base to better military crisis preparedness. Thank you Dakota Scout for keeping the public abreast of issues like this.

Good to know our forces are ready should we find ourselves in a major conflict.
