Air Force officials at the nation’s nuclear missile bases are reexamining the way they train with Humvees after two airmen died in the vehicles late last year.
The 20th Air Force, the numbered combatant command that oversees intercontinental ballistic missiles at bases and sites in the western U.S., initiated “a deliberate pause coupled with a reassessment of training, certification, and employment” for airmen using the Humvee, said Col. Brus Vidal, an Air Force Global Strike Command spokesman.
